He is best known for his long-term photographic involvements with the elderly's old world culture of South Beach, Haiti during the end of the Duvalier regime and foray into democracy, and tourism as a rite of passage. He has received various honors and distinctions for his work, including two National Endowments for the Arts, four Florida Humanities Council Fellowships, a State of Florida arts fellowship, and two Fulbright Foundation fellowships. Monroe is the author of The Highwaymen: Florida's African-American Landscape Painters and three other books on Florida's Highwaymen artists.

Barnhill: Florida Photographer, Adventurer, Entrepreneur, highlights the artist's hand-colored photographs.
