Biographie de Kim Gottlieb-Walker

Kim Gottlieb-Walker's incredibly varied career has covered everything from classic rock and roll, reggae and politics in the 1960s and 1970s, to working on major motion pictures and television shows. While still at UCLA (where she received a BA in Motion Picture Production) and shortly thereafter, she shot for underground LA newspapers and magazines like Crawdaddy and Music World. She worked in the mid-70s for Island Records covering reggae performers all over Jamaica and her High Times cover of Bob Marley remains their most popular cover, ever.
She also shot the stills for John Carpenter's Halloween, The Fog, Christine and Escape from New York and worked at Paramount for nine years as the production photographer for Cheers and five years for Family Ties. She has served for over two decades as an elected representative for still photographers on the National Executive Board of IATSE Local 600, the International Cinematographers Guild.
