Design and Architecture

Goodbye, Julius Shulman

Julius Shulman, architectural photographer whose seductive images sold California Midcentury Modern architecture and its lifestyle around the world, died on July 15 at the age of 98. We celebrate his legacy with recollections from some of the people who knew him -- Dion Neutra, Craig Krull, Juergen Nogai, Eric Bricker, Ann Videriksen, Frank Gehry and Elizabeth Armstrong -- as well as pithy taped commentary from Shulman himself. In an online exclusive bonus, KCRW's very own Eric J. Lawrence talks about the best spaces in Los Angeles for free summertime concerts, and Dana Cuff talks about WPA 2.0, a competition open to anyone who wants to offer up an imaginative vision for new infrastructure in our post-industrial age.
