Robert H. Jackson (photographer)

Robert H. "Bob" Jackson (born c. 1935) is an American photographer. In 1964, Jackson, then of the "Dallas Times-Herald", was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for Photography for his photograph of the murder of Lee Harvey Oswald by Jack Ruby.

In later life, Bob Jackson was a staff photographer for the Colorado Springs Gazette-Telegraph.

Jackson was riding in the media car of President John F. Kennedy's motorcade through Dealey Plaza and snapped a shot of the 6th floor window of the Texas School Book Depository just seconds after Oswald's final shot. Oswald, however, had already fled.
