Description
The extensive portfolio of photographic artist Carol Westwood (1942-2011), a native New Yorker who lived in Los Angeles for many years, includes a diverse array of subjects: animals, nudes, American and European cities, and portraits. Additionally, she worked on special and still photography for numerous motion picture and television productions in Hollywood; the archive of her entertainment and celebrity images was distributed internationally by Gamma, Liaison International, Stone Images, and Getty images from 1988-2003.
In front of a turbo-prop commuter plane in the midst of landing, a Lockheed L-1011 jet (center) is about to depart from Los International Airport. Both the Hollywood Hills and Beverly Hills are seen in the background.
