E.J. Gold is a multi-talented photographer whose photography career began in the 1960s with photo shoots of Harry Nilsson, the Monkees, Paul Revere & the Raiders, Jefferson Airplane, Jerry Garcia and many others, during the same time that Jim Morrison helped him out with his booth in L.A.'s Psychedelic Supermarket. Many of these were shown at Mo' Jazz: 50 Years of Red Carpet, an exhibit at Rachel Kelly's Flying Hare Gallery.

Gold shot some lovely goddesses then as well.

Gold is also a jazz musician who paints monumental canvasses for jazz concert installations, such as Wynton Marsalis, Toots Thielemans, and Oscar Peterson, Marian McPartland and others at the International Association for Jazz Educations' [IAJE's] concert stages in Toronto, New York and Long Beach. His Jazz Greats portraits travelled across the United States with the Harlem Renaissance show and have appeared at Jazz at Lincoln Center and the Hollywood Bowl. His portrait of Herbie Hancock is in the permanent collection of the National Museum of American History. Gold is one of the founders of the Grass Valley Graphics Group and the School of Reductionism. His art is collected by hundreds of individuals and museums, including celebrity collectors Bill & Hillary Clinton, the late King Hussein of Jordan, actors Curtis Armstrong and Catherine Oxenberg, the late Harry Nilsson, Miss Peggy Lee and Billy Barty.
