L.A. Time Machines suggests that "Chris Nichols and Jim Heimann have to be two of the greatest living Restaurant and mid-Century Modern historians around." Which is why it's fitting that Chris, a Los Angeles magazine staffer by day, emailed this must-attend event for anyone obsessed with L.A. history:
"LA Erased," An Evening with Jim Heimann
Sunday, March 2nd, 2008
6 p.m. - 8 p.m.
Walgrove Auditorium
1630 Walgrove Ave.
Los Angeles 90066
Please join The Friends of Walgrove and The New School-West preschool in welcoming Taschen author, editor, and graphic designer Jim Heimann for a rare evening exploring the hidden history of Los Angeles. Part slideshow, part rambling travelogue, this will be an evening filled with unusual and arcane images and tidbits about the city we all love. Tickets $15. Limited seating. Email now for your tkts to newschoolwest@earthlink.net. There will be limited seating.
Chris refers to Heimann (author of "California Crazy," above) as "my mentor, my hero." Good enough for me. Plus, he notes, it's a charity event.
