So excited about this episode!  My whole life, I've had an inexplicable fascination and nostalgia for abandoned buildings but never been brave enough to explore them.  With his project Abandoned America, Matthew Christopher has done just that on a grand and beautiful scale.  He has documented the ruins of America through abadoned properties.  Factories, asylums, theaters, he is fearless in his pursuit of a new look at an old thing.  This isn't ghost hunting, and it isn't blight porn, this is a story told through forgotten spaces.  

Matthew's new book, "Abandoned America, Dismantling The Dream" is a his second work of photography.  Learn more about it here:
