Lynn Goldsmith Portrait Photography
American, b. 1948
Lynn Goldsmith has documented over five decades of American culture, capturing stars from The Beatles and The Rolling Stones to David Bowie, Blondie and Iggy Pop. Taking advantage of the close access granted to acts in the 60s and 70s, she created insightful, candid shots that delved below the of rock and roll. Goldsmith has a particularly close working relationship with Patti Smith who she photographed for the cover of her legendary Easter album in 1977. The award-winning photographer has had 12 best-selling books of her work published; she also works as a documentary filmmaker and a singer and songwriter (under the pseudonym Will Powers). Goldsmith’s work is held in the collections of the Smithsonian American Art Museum, the Polaroid Collection, the Museum Of Modern Art, the Chicago Museum of Contemporary Photography, and the permanent collection of Museum Folkwang.(Biography provided by Modern Rocks Gallery)

"The Beatles" photograph by Lynn Goldsmith from the Hard Rock Hotel, Las Vegas
By Lynn Goldsmith
Located in Boca Raton, FL
"The Beatles" framed black and white photograph by Lynn Goldsmith. Image size: 14 x 18 1/2inches. This photograph was previously displayed in a guest room of the original Hard Rock Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas, Nevada, and comes with a certificate of authenticity and commemorative plaque to that effect. Lynn Goldsmith wrote about this image: "The Beatles were coming to Miami to the Deauville Hotel to perform live on the Ed Sullivan Show. It was February 13, 1964. I had turned 16 two days before. My stepfather was in the hotel business and arranged for me to be in the lobby for their arrival. Little did he know I thought the Beatles were too 'goodie-goodie.' I was a Rolling Stones fan. I didn’t want to disappoint him since he thought this would be momentous for me. Besides, I decided it might be worthwhile as I’d never seen the lobby carpet...
