Ken Burns’ ‘Our America’: Bigfork photographer’s image included in anthology

Last month, filmmaker Ken Burns published, “Our America: A Photographic History,” a hardcover volume with pictures shot around the United States from 1839 to the present.

The artists include important figures like Walker Evans, Ansel Adams, Robert Frank, Dorothea Lange, Edward Curtis, Sally Mann and more.

Among the images, you’ll find a portrait called “Tommy in his Car,” by photographer Lauren Grabelle. Her subject is Tommy Christian (Assiniboine Sioux), in regalia not long after winning a 1996 powwow in Connecticut.
