Norman Pedersen's Nixon
Norm Pedersen, the great photographer is having a show at a new gallery downtown at Roosevelt and 6th Street called Space 55.
I am honored to be a friend of Norm’s. He’s been an Arizona treasure since the 40′s. He worked for the Phoenix Gazette and the Republic, photographed Nixon for the paper and the Supia Indians down in the Grand Canyon for Arizona Highways. He had a commercial studio where he did work for grocery stores (those big pics above the vegetable counter, huge murals of meat, some of those are his to this day), he shot saddles, whiskey, baby clothes, Sun City pieces for Del Web.
I had the honor of doing some posters for him, let’s see if I can get one out here for you to see.
He’s quite a guy, and starting on his third childhood and at least his third career. You go guy!
