Harry Adams: Camera & Community

1997, Softcover, 18 pages, 14 images

The photographs of Harry Adams were seen for thirty years on the pages of the California Eagle and the Los Angeles Sentinel. He also photographed for any number of churches, social organizations, and private clients, amassing a collection of nearly on-half million images. Harry was probably one of the best-known people in the community. He and his camera were and omnipresent part of social life from 1955-1985.

Camera & Community: A Celebration by Guy R. Crowder

1993, softcover, 21 pages, 23 images

Guy Crowder’s images reflect a vision and reality that is rarely seen in one place. Few people have been privileged enough to have been so close to the heartbeat of their community as Crowder. But proximity alone is not enough. These images, since the 1960s, perceived and recorded by Crowder without artifice or embellishment – with straightforward intelligence and clarity – become a celebration of that very community. He and his collection of camera have been seen chronicling political, social, and athletic events in Los Angeles for more than 25 years.
