Photographs by Timothy Roberts
Atlantic City looms large in the American imagination. Historically the city was a refuge for those fleeing Prohibition. The casinos offered the unsleeping promise of redemption at the pull of a lever or roll of the dice. Timothy Roberts’ photographs profile this iconic American shore resort as it emerges from its latest crisis.
Timothy Roberts is a photographer based in Philadelphia. He spent many years as a newspaper reporter working in the South and the West. Now a documentary photographer, Roberts looks for stories about places in transition or people who are struggling with the changes and chances of life.
