Who is this guy?

My main website is www.glennprimm.com

Over the years, I have worked on any number of projects and for a wide range of clients: large studio set-ups and on location for Sears, JC Penny, Montgomery Ward, Speigel, Hamm's Beer, Coleman, Ralston-Purina, Garelli Motorbikes; news and current events for Newsweek, Parade, PC Week and MacWorld and other local and national publications. Blues music is one of my passions, and I documented the Chicago music scene for many years, with my main focus on Chicago-style blues and blues musicians. For some time I was the house photographer for James Cotton's Cotton Club.

Most recently, my focus have been on the rejuvenation and recovery of old Los Angeles' downtown business core, as it morphs from its troubled past as part of the infamous Skid Row area into a vibrant and modern urban living center.
