ELVIS AT 21: PHOTOGRAPHS BY ALFRED WERTHEIMER
In 1956, photojournalist Alfred Wertheimer was hired by RCA Victor to shoot promotional images of a recently signed 21-year-old recording artist (Presley), and his instincts to "tag along" with the artist after the assignment resulted in 56 striking images that provide an intimate look at Elvis before he exploded onto the scene and became one of the most exciting performers of all time. The exhibit will run through March 28, 2010.
Friday, January 8, 2010; 8pm
Join Executive Director Robert Santelli as he interviews storied photojournalist Alfred Wertheimer on the occasion of Elvis Presley's 75th birthday and the opening day of the Museum's new special exhibit, Elvis at 21: Photographs by Alfred Wertheimer. Chris Murray, the exhibit's curator and founder/director of Washington, D.C.'s Govinda Gallery, will also join the two onstage. Afterwards, Wertheimer will sign copies of Elvis 1956, the exhibit's companion catalog.
