Ed Gale’s zodiac sign is Virgo. According to astrologers, Virgos are always paying attention to the smallest details and their deep sense of humanity makes them one of the most careful signs of the zodiac. Their methodical approach to life ensures that nothing is left to chance, and although they are often tender, their heart might be closed for the outer world. This is a sign often misunderstood, not because they lack the ability to express, but because they won’t accept their feelings as valid, true, or even relevant when opposed to reason. The symbolism behind the name speaks well of their nature, born with a feeling they are experiencing everything for the first time.
Ed Gale was born in the Year of the Pig. Those born under the Chinese Zodiac sign of the Pig are extremely nice, good-mannered and tasteful. They’re perfectionists who enjoy finer things but are not perceived as snobs. They enjoy helping others and are good companions until someone close crosses them, then look out! They’re intelligent, always seeking more knowledge, and exclusive. Compatible with Rabbit or Goat.
Gallucci has won over 100 advertising industry awards for his photography, including five Andys and two Clios.
Ed Gallucci was born in the Park Slope section of Brooklyn, New York in 1947, the son of Italian immigrants who had migrated from the Calabria region of southern Italy to New York City. During his early years, the family moved to Union County, New Jersey. Known well to his classmates at Governor Livingston High School as "the Artist," after graduation he moved to Kansas City, Missouri and studied graphic design and photography at the Kansas City Art Institute, where he earned a BFA degree.
After exhibiting his work at Grey Advertising in the late 1970s, Gallucci was encouraged to make the switch from editorial to commercial studio photography. Gallucci Studio Inc. was established in Manhattan and occupied four different addresses between 1978 and 1998. Under these auspices Gallucci shot hundreds of magazine spreads and covers for: Newsweek, Business Week, Fortune, U.S. News & World Report, Discover, Longevity, New York Magazine, PC Magazine, Psychology Today, Science, Video Review, Weight Watchers, and Family Health magazines. Thousands of Gallucci’s photographs have appeared on print ads, billboards, book covers, annual reports, catalogs, and brochures. His work appeared internationally in Photo-Graphis for seven consecutive years. From 1979 to 1993, while on assignment with the magazine’s cover department, Gallucci's work was published on over 40 Newsweek covers
In December 1972, after seeing the performer play at Kenny's Castaways club on New York's Upper East Side, Ed Gallucci took the photographs that accompanied the first interview/profile of Bruce Springsteen, in Crawdaddy magazine, written by editor-in-chief Peter Knobler. These iconic photographs, taken during band rehearsals in an unheated garage and at Springsteen's apartment in Bradley Beach, New Jersey when Springsteen was 23 years old and the E Street Band had not yet been named, have only recently been unearthed and rediscovered. Gallucci was a regular contributor to Crawdaddy, photographing Muhammad Ali, Woody Allen, Jerry Garcia, Paul Simon, Al Green, Blood, Sweat & Tears, Stevie Wonder, Robert Altman, John Cassavetes and many others for the magazine. His work also appeared in Rolling Stone, Penthouse, and Playboy.
Photos from Gallucci's Frames Between Fares collection will be on exhibit in the O. Winston Link Museum in Roanoke, VA. The show opening will be July 25, 2014 at 6pm. Similar to O. Winston Link, Gallucci grew up in Brooklyn, NY and found himself in Southwest Virginia.
Monmouth University in Monmouth, NJ hosts a permanent collection featuring 36 of Gallucci's photographs. In 2012, Gallucci and Crawdaddy magazine Editor Peter Knobler lectured in conjunction with a special show, "Ed Gallucci - The Crawdaddy Years and Beyond" at Monmouth University's Pollak Gallery. The university also featured Gallucci's photographs in "Bruce Springsteen: A Photographic Journey" at its Rechnitz Hall exhibit from September 8 through December 22, 2015.
"The Crawdaddy Years and Beyond” photographs were also exhibited at the Sumter County Cultural Commission in Sumter, SC during the months of April and May 2016.
Ed Gallucci’s iconic Bruce Springsteen photographs will be featured in the upcoming movie release “A Man and his Music”, The Clive Davis Story. Also, his photographs of Chicago blues musician Paul Butterfield will be featured in the film “Horn From the Heart”, The Paul Butterfield Story, premiering April 21, 2017 at the Newport Beach Film Festival in Newport Beach, CA
