Gordon Ward Gahan (November 5, 1945 – October 19, 1984) was an American photographer.
==Biography==

He attended Harrison High School, where he played on the football team. He attended Phillips Exeter Academy (1959-1963), where he served on the Photographic Boards of the Exonian and the Yearbook. He attended Columbia University (1963-1964). He worked for United Press International (1965-1966),〔Gahan photographed many notable persons and events, and his work was carried worldwide. A partial listing of subjects is carried on the Harvard website.〕 then was drafted into the United States Army, and worked as a photographer in Vietnam during the Vietnam War (1966-1968).〔Gahan was attached to the 173rd Airborne Brigade. He was awarded the Bronze Star Medal, and a Purple Heart.〕
Gahan is best known for his contributions to the ''National Geographic'' in the 1970s and 1980s. He began working for the National Geographic Society in 1968 as a contract photographer, and joined the staff in 1972. Assignments took Gahan around the world—to Japan, Kenya, Senegal, Egypt, Israel, Turkey, Greece, Soviet Union, East and West Germany, France, Switzerland, Portugal, England, Canada, United States, Mexico, Brazil, Guatemala, Belize, Panama, Bolivia, Peru, Colombia, Argentina, Australia, New Zealand, Vanuatu, French Polynesia, and Tonga. He left the National Geographic Society in 1982 to co-found Prism Photography Inc., with Martin Rogers and Howie Shneyer, in New York City.
Gahan died in 1984, while taking aerial photographs in the Virgin Islands for a client. He and his assistant, Joseph Capitelli, died along with the pilot when a helicopter crashed near St. Thomas during the photo shoot.
