  • ADMINISTRATIVE/ BIOGRAPHICAL HISTORY

    Leon Gregory is a Sydney based photographer who in the early 1970s was aspiring to be an actor. At that time, much of Gregory's photographic work was related to theatre, however in his spare time he also engaged in street photography in areas of Sydney including Kings Cross, Darlinghurst, Woolloomooloo, The Domain, Glebe and Balmain. Much of this work, taken between 1971-1973, remained as film negatives for decades until Gregory had them scanned in digital format.

    Gregory exhibited the items in this collection, amongst others, in the Head On Photo Festival in 2014.
