Newspaperwomen
In the 1930s and 1940s L.A. was a newspaper town filled with fedora-sporting, fast-talking, men on a deadline. But two of the toughest and best crime reporters of their day were women. Florabel Muir and Agness Underwood rubbed shoulders with the likes of Bugsy Siegel and Mickey Cohen.
The Santa Monica Pier
The Santa Monica pier stands as a world-famous icon and beloved by all who live here and all who visit. Jim Harris is the world’s leading authority on this California landmark, and his talks never disappoint.
