Land Of The Free What Makes Americans Different

These full-page color portraits are photographer David Graham's tribute to the American people in all their idiosyncratic splendor. Graham has photographed ordinary folks in their homes, at work, & at play across the nation -- from his native PA to New Mexico, & many places in between -- to assemble a composite picture of America. The portraits of celebrity impersonators are some of Graham's funniest: Elvis, Marilyn & Sinatra & Roy Orbison, Bette Middler & Liz Taylor. Historical figures posing for the camera include Christopher Columbus, Benjamin Franklin, & George Washington -- brought to life through the act of impersonation. Graham's colorful portraits showcase the characters who give America its character. Witty insights by Andrei Codrescu.Graham, David is the author of 'Land Of The Free What Makes Americans Different', published 2004 under ISBN 9780756771447 and ISBN 0756771447.
