These are the photographs I’ve taken over the last 25 years of various subcultures throughout the United States. I have produced 5 photography projects, 3 books, 2 short films, a public radio series, and a touring Smithsonian exhibition that went to 14 museums. The only photograph that isn’t mine is the Becher typology grid at the bottom of the page.
