To celebrate the one year anniversary of West Palm Beach's Lakefront Pavilion in sunny south Florida, the city selected the all-new touring Harley Earl photo exhibit to streamline all their celebratory February, 2011 waterfront events. Automotive Hollywood is a photographic tribute to the glamorous creations of Harley Earl. Just as Hollywood turned budding starlets into iconic stars of the silver screen, the cars rolling out of Harley's design studio doors were celebrities in their own right, complete with flashing cameras, inquisitive reporters and millions of Americans clamoring for a glimpse and an opportunity to buy.

Culled from a trove of rare and never-before-seen images from the Earl family, the photographs displayed in this collection were carefully selected by Curator Richard Earl. Designed to appeal to modern audiences, this exhibit truly enlivens a bygone era of grace, style and national pride.
