Brad Elterman and the notorious Hollywood parties of the 70s and 80s

Brad Elterman – Eddie Behind The Beverly Hills Hotel No.3 1977

Brad Elterman is not your average paparazzi. Like something out of Almost Famous, his career in social celebrity photography began at the ripe old age of 16 when he was loaned a camera to take to a concert. His very first photo was of a young Bob Dylan performing on stage which was published in 1974 and for the following decade he spent countless nights doumenting Hollwood’s party scene and the emerging rock, punk and pop stars of the day. These included the likes of David Bowie, the Sex Pistols, the Runaways, Kiss, Queen, Blondie, the Ramones, the Bay City Rollers, Abba, Boney M, Kenny Rogers, The Who, Leif Garrett, Michael Jackson and heaps more. He’s also had his work pretty much published in every decent music magazine you can think of.
