California, the Golden State, is steeped in cliche like almost
nowhere else: palm trees, beach-blonde surfers, aspiring actors and
tail-finned cars, all bathed in endless sunshine. Sally Davies,
acclaimed New York street photographer and author of New Yorkers,
heads west to capture the images and listen to the voices of
everyday Californians in their own homes, hoping to delve beneath
the ubiquitous stereotypes. She finds light and space, swimming
pools and enticing views of the stunning natural surroundings
encroaching through the walls. Posing for her in bedrooms, garages
and patios, Davies discovers vibrant multicultural communities,
eccentric stories of hopes and dreams, tales of gridlocked traffic,
urban sprawl, air pollution and all aspects of the entertainment
industry. Among the voices are well-known figures, Linda Ramone and
actor Eric McCormack, accompanied by a cast of models, producers, a
high-court judge, artists, stylists, writers, musicians, lawyers,
magicians and many more.
