Port Gibson, Mississippi
"My mother once said to me, 'Son, everybody is going to think Alabama is a rusted, worn-out, bullet-ridden place, based on your work.' It is said that Greensboro, the county seat of Hale County, possesses more antebellum homes for its size than any other little town in the South. But for me they're almost too accessible, too ready-made for making a picture of them. I was always attracted by the warped shapes of the rustic, smaller buildings and houses—the way they had been molded, altered by time."
William Christenberry from his 2008 book Working From Memory.
