The photographer Edward Wallowitch was a native of industrial South Philadelphia, growing up in a family with more than its fair share of creative talent. Both sides of the family hailed from late nineteenth century Lithuanian immigrants. The Wallowitch parents ran a delicatessen in the shadow of the Atlantic Oil Refining Co., later to become Sonoco.

Three of the children gravitated to New York City in the mid-1950s where they quickly became part of Greenwich Village bohemia. Edward’s brother John Wallowitch studied music at Juilliard and became a celebrated songwriter and cabaret performer. His first album This is John Wallowitch!!!
