L. A. Bizarro! The Insider's Guide to the Obscure, the Absurd and the Perverse in Los Angeles Tapa blanda - 1997

Anthony R. Lovett is a full-time cynic and semi-retired "bon vivant" who sometimes poses as a writer. A musician, artist and actor, Lovett is a wounded veteral of L.A.'s improv scene. The author is ashamed to admit that he has also written rock videos, appeared in Kmart commercials, and co-starred in one of the worst low-budget movies ever made. Lovett's articles have appeared in "Rolling Stone, Playboy, L.A. Weekly," and others. A Texas transplant, he lives with his wife and daughter just a stone's throw from the Mason family's old hangout, Spahn Ranch.
Matt Maranian headed straight for Los Angeles in 1984 to pursue an ill-fated acting career. A string of insignificant television appearances culiminated with a brief recurring sting on one of the worst sitcoms ever made, "Mr. Belvedere," in which he co-starred with a goat. He immediately switched careers, and immersed himself in what has become an ongoing investigation of just what makes L.A. so damn weird. His writings have appeared in "b"OING "b"OING, "The Los Angeles Reader, Harper's," and British "Esquire." He lives in the San Fernando Valley with his wife, Loretta Palazzo.
