Annette Del Zoppo

Annette Del Zoppo (1936-2001) was a multi-faceted Southern California-based photographer, graphic designer, multimedia producer, business owner, and community activist. In 1961, she began work in the office of Charles and Ray Eames where she worked from 1961-1970,[1] producing media and projects including films, presentations, and exhibits.[2]From the 1960s through the 1980s, she photographed and filmed the work of architect Paolo Soleri at both Cosanti and Arcosanti. Over a period of two years, as Director of Environmental Photography, Del Zoppo and her staff photographed all phases of the design program for the 1984 XXIIIrd Olympic Games in Los Angeles.[3]

In the late 1960s, she and Parke Meeke, her business partner, opened what has been referred to as the country's first vintage clothing store in the United States, named "Ephemera"[4]
