Tracy in Rancho La Brea.

Writer. Observer. Activist. Searcher for stories in Los Angeles that speak to the challenge of living in a city with a complicated history and with tremendous hurdles in front of it. I am drawn to the stories that remind us where we have been and where we are heading. I focus on a moment, an observation, an action by one or some that deserves attention. I am a believer that the heart and soul of a city is there in front of us if we just listen to the stories. It’s also okay to find the humor. I am a Los Angeleno.
