About the book, Portraits of Peace: “Frustrated with an increasingly polarized social landscape, award-winning photographer John Noltner set out on a 40,000-mile road trip across the United States to rediscover the common humanity that connects us. He did so by asking people one simple question: ‘What does peace mean to you?’ Through difficult conversations, gentle humor, and a keen eye for beauty, Noltner's Portraits of Peace captures a rich collage of who we are as a nation.” – Amazon

John Noltner, originally from Beaver Dam, Wisconsin, is a photographer, author and activist currently based in Minneapolis. He is the founder and Executive Director for A Peace of My Mind, a nonprofit multimedia arts project, that uses portraits and personal stories to bridge divides and build community.
