Driving across Kansas in the middle of the night just past the border of Missouri, I remember rolling green hills forever with smells and stars unlike anything I've known back East. Those moments were the inspiration for this project. Using photography from that trip in my '87 Saab, I designed this book jacket. I wanted to capture that allure of the American Road - a feeling that transcends generations, a feeling written about countless times although best described in its original attempt in 1951... "everything in life is somewhere else and an automobile can get you there."
