quote:
His current occupation is photographer, and he currently resides in New Orleans' French Quarter.
After retiring from a pro-bowl career with the New Orleans Saints, Brad returned to his roots: the art of photography. He now owns and operates Brad Edelman Photography LINK /. He specializes in commercial and fine arts photography.
He also does sports analysis for WDSU-TV in New Orleans. In that capacity, Edelman was part of the team that told the story of the Super Bowl Champion New Orleans Saints.
He’s also a multi-talented performer working in films, radio and theater. He’s performed with such artists as Aaron Neville and The Radiators. He’s sung the national anthem for NFL and Tulane football games.

some good work
nice video piece
2005-
His craft was once trading jabs with 300-pound defenders, protecting the quarterbacks behind him from 1982-1990 as a top-notch offensive lineman for the New Orleans Saints. And while football aficionados often cite the creative genius of an essentially brutish game, even in his playing days Brad Edelman had the heart and vision of an artist, despite it being covered in a mountain of protective gear.
No longer the hulking subject of the long-lensed cameramen who roam NFL sidelines,
Edelman has developed into one of the area’s most admired photographers since his retirement from the gridiron. He now employs those same over-sized hands and the keen attention to detail that served him so well as a Pro Bowl guard for the Saints in an irrefutable artistic endeavor: Creating lasting images with fine photography.
Edelman is now a fixture in the fine-arts scene in New Orleans, with two high-end gallery shows in as many years. His latest effort, Tableau d’un Histoire, lovingly captures the lifestyle and Barracks Street residence of George Valentine Dureau, the noted artist, photographer and Crescent City aristocrat. That Portfolio is currently hanging in the ultra-chic Aldridge-Leatherman Galerie des Arts in Exchange Alley.
“I wasn’t interested in shooting George as a baggy pants comedian” said Edelman. “I wanted to shoot the George that no one sees.”
Dureau and his fashionable nest have been photographed before, but it was always with contrived poses or simple images of the artist’s famous canvasses. Edelman took a more inspired approach to the opportunity and came away with another admirer.
“Brad caught me and the place undressed, so to speak, said Dureau. “And he shot it from way up in the air that no one else, including me, would ever conceive. Brad is a physical, poetic genius with that camera.”
Physical indeed, Edelman stands well over 6-feet tall. Admired not only for his artistic talent, but also for his sheer size, he played the Giant in a Contemporary Arts Center production of “Jack and the Beanstalk.”
