David Kalb was born and raised in Los Angeles. His interest in photography started at an early age, watching his uncle develop and print images in his home darkroom.
Shooting on the street for the past 12 years has been like a people safari. As Kalb roams the streets of a city, camera at the ready, he is always looking for humorous situations, intriguing expressions, ironic moments, and touching interactions. Kalb looks to capture images that eavesdrop on the world.
Kalb is an award-winning photographer whose work has been exhibited throughout the United States and in Glasgow, Scotland. Among his prior solo exhibitions, were: “Big City Streets: Small Moments in Time”; “The People of Cuba”; and “Street Photography: A People Safari”. He has also been a part of a dozen juried group shows.
Kalb serves as President of Viewpoint Photographic Art Center, an educational non-profit art center in Sacramento which exclusively exhibits photography. Kalb volunteers as a photographer for the Yolo Basin Foundation, which use his images in a variety of promotional and social media materials.
