  lecture series\, we are thrilled to have Ron discuss his storied
  career as a visual storyteller.

 Pownall's career began at the Chicago Tribune\, where he arrived just
  in time to cover the riots at the 1968 Democratic Convention. His
  first music assignments read like a roll call of an era: Jefferson
  Airplane\, Janis Joplin\, Jimi Hendrix\, Cream\, and The Righteous
  Brothers. The path was set. A conscientious objector\, Pownall came to
  Boston to complete his alternative service\, and he never really left.
 
 An early connection with Aerosmith in 1973 opened the door to work for
  CBS/Sony Records\, Rolling Stone\, and Creem\, and to assignments
  directly for Queen\, Elton John\, Eric Clapton\, the J. Geils Band\,
  Boston\, The Cars\, Meat Loaf\, and Susan Tedeschi\, among many
  others. His archive holds more than 600 artists\, and his images have
  graced over 300 LP\, CD\, book\, and magazine covers. 
 
 Pownall's fine art prints are represented by galleries across the
  country\, and Getty Images handles his licensing. He serves on the
  Artist's Advisory Board of the Folk Americana Roots Hall of Fame in
  Boston\, and works from his studio in the Brickbottom Artists Building
  in Somerville\, Massachusetts. 
 
 Join us at Leica Gallery Boston for an up-close look at the
  photographer who helped define how the sound of a generation looked.
