Person properties

General info :
Jere Alhadeff is a drag racing photographer.
Jere has been photographing cars and motorsports for over 50 years in Southern California. He began shooting drag racing at Lions Drag Strip in Long Beach, California in 1965. His interest in photography dates back to high school where he honed his skills at the school’s newspaper.
After finding his way to the drag races where he shot for a year or so, Jere was offered the track photographer job at Lions. He also began freelancing for several hot rod and drag racing monthly magazines continuing to develop his craft. After the Lions gig, he was offered the same position at the Irwindale track.

Fully immersed in the heyday of So-Cal drag racing, he went on to serve as Track Photographer at Orange County International Raceway in the late 60s before returning to Lions to shoot for new track manager, Steve Evans. Besides being one of history’s elite trackside lensmen, he’s the only person to have been track photographer at three of the four Southern California drag strips that were active at that time.
