I visited over 150 American communities between 1999 and 2003 to photograph their elected representatives in meetings. Prints from this series have been collected and exhibited by museums across the country, including the Whitney in NY, the Museum of Contemporary Photography and the Museum of Fine Art in Chicago, the Walker Art Center and the Minneapolis Museum of Art, the Getty Museum in Los Angeles and the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art.

The “Meetings” book was published in 2004 (128 pages, Chris Boot Ltd, London).

“It is greatly to Shambroom’s credit that he not only endured some excruciatingly tedious gatherings .. but he manages, by virtue of his picture’s scrupulous neutrality, to capture something of this. He shows how dull, trivial, smug and sometimes self-serving the process of democratic government can be, but also how, as Winston Churchill noted, this imperfect system is the best we have, and must be cherished.” -The Photobook: A History Vol. II, Parr and Badger
