There are, I think, three terrific photo shows at the Getty - the
Weegee and press photography shows mentioned by Richard, and a show of
architectural photographer Julius Shulman's work. I especially liked
the photo of the Picwood Theater, at Pico and Westwood Blvds in Los
Angeles, my neighborhood theater when I was a kid.
Sometimes when I visit the Getty I bring a Rolleiflex, and I hang it
off my neck in its original case - it always garners a comment or two.

I didn't see the Shulman exhibit, I wish I'd known it was there. Maybe
a return trip is in order. I strongly recommend visiting the Getty to
anyone visiting Los Angeles. They have recently re-opened the original
museum on the bluff above the Coast Highway. The Getty is at

I assume they have also re-established the "by appointment only" rules?
I used to live just 1/4 mile up the hill from the old Getty, but like
many locals, I only visited it twice. If it's too handy, you rationalize
that you can go anytime you want...and end up not going much at all!
One of my 'must see's' in London is The Tate, but I don't visit my own
museums nearby! <g>
