John Moore of Getty Images has visited American-run detention centers in Iraq, including Abu Ghraib and Camp Cropper; prisons for Taliban fighters in Afghanistan run by that country’s National Directorate of Security; the Pul-i-Charkhi prison outside Kabul; and, more recently, the Guantánamo Bay detention center. He is gathering these images in a longterm project, “Detained.” James Estrin and David Furst interviewed him by telephone in August and then again briefly following his most recent visit to Guantánamo.
