Wynn Miller´s career as an artist has spanned over 30 years. His late- 1970´s work - capturing skateboarder Tony Alva and his fellow Dogtown skateboarders has achieved iconic status. Miller´s now - infamous Freshjive Mad Dog Chronicles has been traveling the world in exhibitions, with extensive showings in Tokyo, Paris, Los Angeles and New York.
Early in his career, Miller chronicled a year in the life of a East Los Angeles street gang known as "Arizona Maravilla". He hung out with the gang, earner their trust and was allowed to photograph them on their own turf. This was a gang culture born on tradition and dedication, a far cry from today´s Crips and Bloods. Nonetheless, violence was endemic and after the shooting death of young gang member with whom he was very close, Miller called it quits and never returning. Source: Wynn Miller
