For over thirty years, through his photographs and narratives, Tom Jenz has been capturing the spirit and soul of America through the parts that are often overlooked. He rarely drives a four-lane road or an urban thoroughfare. He keeps to the farm and ranch roads or the city streets, searching for a photographic opportunity, a veteran farmer, a collapsing barn, a dying town, an old house, rusty pickup, or a street person down on his luck, and those folks who will share their tales with him, all visual metaphors from the forgotten America.
His photographs live through his influences: Walker Evans, Dorthea Lange, Robert Frank, and Gary Winogrand.
