Gil Garcetti Biography

But he left the district attorney's office in 2000 and got out his cameras turning a lifelong hobby -- photography -- into a second career.
In the summer of 2001 Garcetti drove past the Disney Hall construction site and was taken by the ironworkers' acrobatics high above L.A.'s North Grand Boulevard. He returned to the site throughout the summer and fall of 2001 to photograph the workers as the structure slowly came together.
After the Hall was completed in February 2003 Garcetti followed up his ironworker series with panoramic photos of the Hall's distinctive stainless steel exterior.
Two books of Garcetti's black-and-white Disney Hall images have been published this year: Iron: Erecting the Disney Concert Hall and Frozen Music. Garcetti is currently working on three new photo book projects: Dance in Cuba (a highly visual chronicle of Cuba's little know yet extremely vibrant dance culture) one in West Africa and one in Los Angeles.
The National Building Museum in Washington D.C. hosted Symphony in Steel: Ironworkers and the Walt Disney Concert Hall an exhibition of 100 Garcetti images.
