The journalist and author Tere Tereba will read from and discuss her new non-fiction book, Mickey Cohen: The Life and Crimes of L.A.'s Notorious Mobster.
From the Last Bookstore website:
Tereba's meticulous, unprecedented research and access to rare photographs and documents reveal new truths in lore about organized crime from the early days of the film industry to the late 1970s. What are Robert F. Kennedy, Richard Nixon, Rev. Billy Graham, Shirley Temple, Marilyn Monroe, Lana Turner, and Frank Sinatra doing appearing alongside mobsters, studio moguls, socialites, top-tier athletes, police, and pimps? You'll have to read and find out.
