Terrell Groggins is an American photojournalist from Detroit, Michigan. He is best known for his black-and-white sports photo of boxer Claressa Shields, which won several awards including first place in the Press/Sports category of the International Photography Awards and third prize in the Sports Category of the World Press Photo Contest. The photo was selected by The Guardian as one of "50 photographs that reshaped sport".[1] His work is held in the permanent collection of the University of Arizona Center for Creative Photography.[2]
Career
[edit]His photo, Shields Strikes Back, was taken during the 2018 fight between Claressa Shields and Hanna Gabriels at the Detroit Masonic Temple.[3] Groggins explained that the photograph—taken from the judges' side of the ring—was the result of a dispute with a staff photographer the day before the match. To avoid further conflict, Groggins moved to the opposite side of the arena where he captured Shields rising from the canvas.[1] A piece in The Guardian listed the picture as one of the "50 photographs that reshaped sport".[1] In 2018, the image was one of 70 selected for the National Geographic, Your Shot crowdsourced contest, Your Best Photos of 2018 (photo of the day, Aug 22).[4]
