Another romantic road trip, one of the great tropes of photography.
“This is the story of my first trip across the United States. It is not really a story, they are bits of notes written each night at a table in a motel room that always was a different place and always looked the same,” wrote Inge Morath at the start of her personal diary, packed with poetic musics and wry observations during an 18-day road trip from New York to Reno in Nevada in 1960. She was headed to Reno on assignment to photograph the making of the film The Misfits, starring Marilyn Monroe. Travelling solo, Morath journeyed through cities and their outer limits, small-town America, ghost towns and expansive open spaces, all of which possessed a unique character.
