Historical Note

Stephen White initially opened his gallery across from the Pacific Design Center in Los Angeles on October 16, 1975. Known initially as Photo Album Gallery, the gallery was one of the few photography galleries in the country. G. Raw Hawkins Gallery was the only other photography gallery in Los Angeles.

White, an avid researcher and collector, relied on his own enthusiasm to build the gallery's business. Beginning with a small inventory and little knowledge of the gallery business, White built relationships with other galleries, museums, collectors and the public, and in the process, helped to cultivate the fine art photography market.

The gallery represented 20th century and contemporary photographers such as Ruth Bernhard, Michael Kenna, and Photo-Secession photographer Karl Struss from 1976 until his death in 1981. In 1986, White acquired the Lotte Jacobi archive, which contained more than 2,000 prints.

The gallery, besides the selling and buying photographs, also did its own exhibitions and published accompanying catalogs, which featured artists represented by the gallery. Jacobi's photographs were featured in exhibitions and publications, Lotte Jacobi: A Selection of Vintage and Modern Photographs in which White wrote the introduction. Other notable exhibitions included The Fashionable World (1979), which included works by Edward Steichen and Charles Sheeler and the collection of Dr. Agha, art director of Vanity Fair (1929-1943); The West Before Weston (1980); Northern Lights (1981). White also exhibited 19th-century photographers such as Giacomo Caneva, Charles Lenormand, and Auguste Salzman, from daguerreotypes to salt prints. This comprehensive view about photography particularly reflected White's own eclectic philosophy, oftentimes embracing images by anonymous makers and documentary photographs.

White further promoted the fine art photography market beyond gallery walls. He authored several photography books including Magic Moments (co-authored by Harry Smith, 1981), John Thomson: Life and Times (1985) (printed as softcover, A Window to the Orient), and Parallels and Contrast (1989). White was also a frequent speaker at the Association of Independent Photography Art Dealers (AIPAD), an organization for which he was a founding president. In 1990, White sold his private and gallery collection to the Tokyo Fuji Art Museum in Japan. The gallery closed its doors in 1991.

Post-gallery life, White continues to devote his time to research and writing, which often lead to important exhibitions. In 2001, he curated The Photograph and the American Dream, 1840-1940, which opened at the Van Gogh Museum in Amsterdam and traveled to Skirball Cultural Center in 2003. In 2011, Skydreamers: A Saga of Air and Space at the Autry National Center in 2011. A year later, White traveled to Beijing to curate History of Photography for Dali Photography Festival, an exhibition that on White fascination lifelong fascination with China.
