Over the past 20 years photojournalist Christopher Morris has concentrated the greater part of his work on war, having documented more than 18 foreign conflicts. In 2000 Morris started producing a series of work, “My America,” while covering the first and second administrations of President George W. Bush for TIME magazine. Over the past six years, while taking photographs from his vantage point as a correspondent close to the center of the United States command, Morris has documented a personal vision in these photographs that reflects an America at the intersection of patriotism, politics and devotion.
Morris has received a multitude of awards for his work, including; the Robert Capa Gold Medal; the Magazine Photographer of the Year award from the University of Missouri School of Journalism; the Infinity Photojournalist award from the International Center of Photography, New York; the Visa d’Or award; and numerous World Press Photo Awards.
