Writer/editor. New Mexican tumbleweed blown east to skyscraper country.
Right now, I am working on a book about F. Scott Fitzgerald, Sheilah Graham, and Hollywood in the 1930s. It will also contain a lot of drinking, powder blue suits, dances at the Cocoanut Grove, betrayal, gossip columns, crazy ladies, secret Jews, film lot moguls, and Dorothy Parker quips at funerals. If the world is still around then, it should be out from Random House around 2014. So let's hope the Mayans were wrong.
If you want to say hi please do. Or find me in short form, here.
New DVD alert: Just got a mint copy of PBS’ “The Cool School: How LA Learned to Love Modern Art,” a new documentary on the Ferus Gallery boys—Ed Kleinholz, Ed Ruscha, Craig Kauffman, Wallace Berman, Ed Moses, and Robert Irwin. The Ferus also showed Andy’s first soup cans, Jasper and Roy’s first West Coast shows, and Duchamp’s first retrospective.
Anyone have a projector for a large viewing?
