Photography With The Paparazzi Approach By Ron Galella

Galella's photographs can be seen in hundreds of publications including Time, Harper's Bazaar, Vogue, Vanity Fair, People, Rolling Stone, The New Yorker, the New York Times and Life. He is widely-known for his obsessive treatment of Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis and the subsequent legal battles associated with it. The New York Post called them "the most co-dependent celeb-paparazzi relationships ever." In the famous 1972 free-speech trial "Galella v. Onassis", she obtained a restraining order to keep Galella 150 feet away from her and her children, which he violated several times. After her death in 1994, John Kennedy Jr. lifted the order and allowed Galella to photograph him at public events.
Galella is willing to take great risks to get the perfect shot. Over his nearly fifty-year career, Galella has been famously punched in the jaw by Marlon Brando in Chinatown, beaten up by Richard Burton's bodyguards in Mexico, hosed down by friends of Brigitte Bardot in Saint Tropez, had his tires slashed by Elvis Presley's security in Queens and was sued twice by Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis. In his in-home darkroom, Galella makes his own prints which have been exhibited at museums and galleries throughout the world, including the Museum of Modern Art in both New York and San Francisco, the Tate Modern in London, and the Helmut Newton Foundation Museum of Photography in Berlin.
