Los Angeles Stories is a collection of loosely linked, tales that evoke a bygone era in
one of America's most iconic cities. In post-World War II Los Angeles, as power was
concentrating and fortunes were being made, a do-it-yourself culture of cool cats, outsiders and oddballs populated the old downtown neighborhoods of Bunker Hill and Chavez Ravine. Ordinary working folks rubbed elbows with petty criminals, grifters and all sorts of women at foggy endof-
the-line outposts in Venice Beach and Santa Monica.
