“Montgomery’s photographs capture the reality of Americans in crisis, in all our flawed, tragic, ridiculous glory.” —Patrick Radden Keefe, author of Empire of Pain: The Secret History of the Sackler Dynasty

American Mirror is award-winning photographer Philip Montgomery’s dramatic chronicle of the United States at a time of profound change. 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.

Philip Montgomery (born in California, 1988) has published photography covering American politics, culture, and society in numerous magazines and newspapers, including the New Yorker, Vanity Fair, New York Times Magazine, Zeit Magazin, TIME, Harper’s, Guardian, Aperture, and Foam Magazine. In 2018, he received a National Magazine Award for his reporting on the opioid epidemic in the US. Jelani Cobb is Ira A. Lipman Professor of Journalism at Columbia University, New York.

He is a staff writer at the New Yorker.  Patrick Radden Keefe is author of the New York Times best-selling books Empire of Pain: The Secret History of the Sackler Dynasty (2021) and Say Nothing: A True Story of Murder and Memory in Northern Ireland (2019).
