MAIN STREETInspired by the Sinclair Lewis novel “Main Street” in which a young, college educated, “with it” woman from the big city marries and moves to a small town in Minnesota expecting to affect change on the locals, this collection of photographic essays documents scenes, architecture, and main street conditions in a number small towns in North America. Watch for additions to this collection as the author travels the continent (and planet).
