Answer

Robert Capa, renowned war photographer and photojournalist, originally hailed from Hungary. Born Endre Ernő Friedmann in Budapest in 1913, Capa was forced to flee his home country in 1931 due to the rise of far-right and anti-Semitic policies. This marked the beginning of his extraordinary career documenting major conflicts around the world, including the Spanish Civil War, World War II, and the First Indochina War.
