Sackheim Gallery

I was born on the southside of Chicago, listening to the music of the streets, hearing the  railroad cars roll and collide  above the 95th Street viaducts. Later, I would listen to the Blues and R&B music music coming out of the radio and hear that same sound.  I started going to Blues clubs to hear the music and to capture the magic of the muscians onstage . It was my way to show respect . And, it was a way to preserve the sights of the Blues clubs. I have come to know many of these great performers. And they have come to accept me , a non-musician , into their world. I owe them so much .This website is dedicated to all the musicians who have let me 'shoot' them.
