Bryce Kornbau: Got The Life

Bakersfield, California, is a working-class city. Sometimes overlooked on the map, it sits at the base of the Grapevine in California’s vast Central Valley. Its oil derricks and service roads scar the western side of the valley floor, while to the east rise the Sierras — and for hundreds of miles to the north, it’s nothing but farmland. To the interstate motorist, it seems just like any of the other western oil and agricultural towns.
