Gary Heery- BIO
Gary Heery is one of Australia’s pre-eminent Portrait and Fine Art Photographers.
Born in Sydney, Heery moved to the US in 1974, where he co-founded India America, a magazine chronicling Native American society and culture in Oklahoma. Two years later he moved to Los Angeles where focused on portrait photography, shooting album covers for Madonna, Paul Simon, Roy Orbison, Frank Zappa, Ray Charles, B.B.
