Scope and Contents

From the Sub-Series:

Sub-Series A: Los Angeles Free Press Photographs (1964-1999) contains images produced by photographers associated with the Free Press such as Uncle Tom, Richard Gordon, Gil Weingourt, Louise Allen Zak, and Art Kunkin, as well as materials received from outside journalists, photographers, and promotional companies. The material is organized into two categories: Photo Prints and Negatives, both of which were arranged by subject. Printed photos capture key moments and topics, such as demonstrations related to the Anti-Vietnam War movement, civil rights protests, other political actions, promotional images for art, cinema, and music, as well as portraits of various individuals and images documenting significant social events, performances, and cultural gatherings. The promotional photos and portraits were organized alphabetically, with unidentified individuals grouped at the end. A majority of the negatives were found in envelopes without descriptions or titles, and the institution assigned numbers to these envelopes while retaining the original order. The negatives were kept in their original envelopes. Other negatives were found arranged in a bound negative binder, which has been preserved in its original order, with dividers added for each section. It is important to note that the images and negatives were not assessed to determine whether they were published in the LA Free Press. Additionally, the collection includes World Wide Press Photos, which were found primarily in their original arrangement and have been organized alphabetically by the last name of the subject.
