Ep. 146 - Stephen Zeigler (These Days Gallery)

Stephen Zeigler is the co-founder of the Downtown Los Angeles-based art gallery “These Days”.

We provide a timeline of his life, from his childhood in Manhattan Beach to a firsthand glimpse into the first wave of Los Angeles punk, and then into a lengthy career in photography with all its triumphs and tribulations.

His journey eventually led him and his wife (and co-founder) Jodi Zeigler to find a building in Downtown Los Angeles that initially served as their studio for the first couple of years and later became “These Days”.

Further topics we discuss include touring with AFI on their first national tour, the many lives of the building at 118 Winston St. (These Days), making a living through photography, sincerity and honesty in the art world, and more.
