"The photographs themselves are grainy, suffused with intense light and shadow, capturing small moments featuring people, road signs, horizons, carnivals, diners."
– New York Times
"Highway 61, Lange’s third published collection of photography, showcases what she saw over six years worth of drives down the iconic road which runs through the center of the U.S.: diners, barrooms, parades, passing barges, landscapes, American eccentrics and everyday people."
– Rolling Stone
"Highway 61, Lange’s fourth published collection, proves the strength of her gaze on its own, away from the shadow of her stardom."
