Comment(s): Hirsh was an extremely influential, and early, experimental filmmaker as well as a photographer. He is regarded as a visual music filmmaker, as well as one of the first filmmakers to use electronic imagery in a film. He is greatly underappreciated as a photographer. He exhibited in Los Angeles and San Francisco in seven shows between 1935 and 1955. In the second of these, a 1936 group exhibition entitled 'Seven Photographers' held at the Stanley Rose Gallery in Los Angeles, he exhibited with some of the leading figures of West Coast photography: Ansel Adams, Edward Weston, and Brett Weston.
