J. M.'s profile
I'm a Baltimore native, a part time analog photography teacher at Baltimore School for The Arts and full time photographer. This year, I was the recipient of the Baltimore Office of Promotions and Arts Travel Grant to continue my series, All For Thee This Day, documenting the collapse of the international steel industry, in Eastern Europe. Selections for the project are currently on view at the Baltimore Museum of Industry. My new series of portraits for the series, "A Wound That Never Heals" will be the subject of my solo show at the Maryland Jewish Museum commemorating the fifth anniversary of the Baltimore Uprising which I documented in 2015 and was featured in American Photo magazine. My series Struggle: Portraits of The Civil Rights Movement was at the Smithsonian Museum of African American History and is in the permanent collection at the Reginald Lewis Museum. In 2015 I was a semi-finalist for the National Gallery's Outwin Boochever Portrait Prize. In 2018, he was named Baltimore's Best Photographer by reader poll. His work has been shown in two shows at the Baltimore Museum of Art.
