During the 80 years of this author's life, the Jewish population of the City of Los Angeles exploded from a mere 65,000 Jews to 520,000 Jews, establishing Los Angeles as the third largest Jewish population center in the world.Yet, little has been written about this transformation, with most Jewish generational novels concentrating on the New YorkJewish experience.And yet,the Los Angeles Jewish experience was completely different from that of New York.

The author, a native of Los Angeles,addresses the Los Angeles Jewish experienceas a personal memoir -- sometimes sad, sometimes funny, and always engrossing.
