About the Book
The series is ongoing.
"The Face of Malibu" follows on from the "The Face of Ventura By Johanna Spinks" with The Ventura Breeze newspaper, that series of 58 life sketches, including movie star Kevin Costner, now in the permanent collection of the Museum of Ventura. Spinks is also working on "The Face of Charleston" with The Charleston Mercury newspaper.
From the proverbial butcher, the baker, and candlestick maker, to police chiefs, mayors and our very own Californa State Senator Herny Stern, come see if you recognize some of the faces? A part of old Malibu, raplidly disappearing, has also been captured in this series through its' citizens sketches and their published tales of Malibu old. Three of the sitters were close to 100 years old.
This book was created along with a show "The Face of Malibu" in conjunction with The Malibu Times and was sponsored by The Malibu Cultural Arts Commission.
