About Londie Padelsky
“I have driven many dirt roads seeking scenic landscapes, and in the process found out-of-the-way outhouses all over the western states. it dawned on me that these little lean-tos told the true history of the area and once they vanished, so would an era reminiscent of the simpler ways of life. “I have hiked, biked, skied, snowshoed, and ridden horseback to capture these extraordinary, humorous, and historic outbuildings. On my photographic journeys abroad, I’ve continued my outlandish search for these decrepit one, two, or three-holers. While tromping grizzly territory in Alaska; backpacking the Haleakala Crater in Hawaii, the fjords of New Zealand, and the jungles of Argentina; and exploring the base of a Chilean volcano, I have found that there is never an outhouse too remote to photograph!” Londie’s book Outhouses: Flushing Out America’s Hidden Treasures by Stoecklein Publishing continues to be a bestseller. a native Californian who has lived in the Eastern Sierras since 1982, Londie’s acclaimed photographs on a variety of subjects have been published in national magazines, books, and calendars.
