Through his intimate and powerful reporting and a signature black-and-white style, Montgomery reveals the fault lines in American society, from police violence and the opioid addiction crisis to the COVID-19 pandemic and the demonstrations in support of Black lives. Yet in his unflinching images, we also see moments of grace and sacrifice, glimmers of solidarity and tireless advocates for democracy. Like Dorothea Lange and Walker Evans before him, Montgomery has made an unforgettable testament of a nation at a crossroads.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eMontgomery, Philip:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e - \u003cb\u003ePhilip Montgomery\u003c\/b\u003e (born in California, 1988) has published photography covering American politics, culture, and society in numerous magazines and newspapers, including the \u003ci\u003eNew Yorker\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eVanity Fair\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eNew York Times Magazine\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eZeit Magazin\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eTIME\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eHarper's\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eGuardian\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eAperture\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003eFoam Magazine\u003c\/i\u003e.
