John Humble (artist)

John Kenneth Humble (1944 – April 13, 2025) was an American photographer known for his large-format color photographs of Los Angeles. Quotes "I think that there is a huge disparity in Los Angeles, as there is in the US in general, between the wealthy and the not-so-wealthy, the haves and the have-nots. And so many of the areas in which I photograph are areas where there are the have-nots." 6d97X9sE4MQ John Humble's Photographs of Los Angeles, J. Paul Getty Museum, 2012. "I was told that if there weren't any power wires, I wouldn't have a body of work. I tend to use them on a regular basis in designing my pictures. They're wonderful for filling the sky." Quoted in Marrie Stone, "John Humble's Sunday Afternoon", Stu News Laguna, September 13, 2024. "The city is a place where people feel free to do and be whatever they want." "Life's a Bitch", Los Angeles Magazine, November 1999, p. 18.
