Elijah Solomon Hurwitz is an independent photographer based in the quiet canyon of Mount Washington, Los Angeles. He feels pulled towards investigating underreported stories and making pictures to help sharpen understanding of social and political issues as he makes sense of things himself. He attended Eddie Adams Workshop XXXI.
