Radically disrupting mere utility, the Women of l.a.Eyeworks reinvented the proportionality of the "Face." Never again will the lines holding the ability to "see better" seem ordinary.
— ELIZABETH STREB
Established in 1979 as the first house of optical design in Los Angeles, l.a.Eyeworks' imaginative and uniquely crafted frames—designed by co-founders Barbara McReynolds and Gai Gherardi—have changed the way people think about eyewear. In addition to its groundbreaking ideas for glasses, l.a.Eyeworks' pursuit of “uncensored visions” has redefined perceptions with explosive marketing concepts, including its signature advertising campaign photographed by Greg Gorman. Known to frame lovers worldwide, the outrageous, expressive lexicon of l.a.Eyeworks has infiltrated the pop culture landscape from fashion to publishing to art and film.

Greg Gorman and l.a.Eyeworks are a winning combination. Greg's legendary images made you want to be a movie star, and in turn, his photos made movie stars. But that is just a small facet in the trajectory of a unique career that has withstood the test of time. Through his lens, Greg captures the beauty of the human face like no other. A photographic portrait artist who puts his heart and soul into his art, Greg lives his life with passion and grace, courage and compassion, and loves a good wine.
