Subject: RE: Woodie Guthrie Square Created
How does this area tie in to Guthries life? IIRC, his LA years were as a radio performer with "Lefty Lou", and writing columns for the communist paper (which were collected in a paperback many years ago). Was the area a skid row when he was there? site of the radio station where he performed? Did he live in the area? Thanks. Best wishes, Thomas.
