Biographical / Historical
Biographical / Historical
Photographer, based in Massachusetts. In 2004, disturbed by instances of religious intolerance he was seeing in the years following the September 11, 2011 terrorist attacks, Churchill drove around the nation to photograph what he described as "an America that felt divided" and "caught in the middle of a cultural tension." While traveling he talked to Americans about their faith, and his book, American Faith, is built around these photographs and conversations.
