“Graves observes the mores and habits of middle America in a searing documentary style that is cutting and devastating in the acuity of his observation. His photographs shout the irony of what he sees, his own anger, yet reflect his great empathy and sense of humor. His pictures are warm and compassionate, and damning and cruel, yet nowhere does he wander away from the most commonplace of settings….middle America going about being middle America in all its nightmarish incongruities.” Joan Murray
