This Saturday, DnA, de LaB, and the LA Forum are presenting a walking tour of West Hollywood in memory of John Chase, dear friend, astute writer of books about L.A., and longtime urban designer for the City of Hollywood, whom we featured on an episode of DnA when he died last year. Using smarts and an exuberant personality, John worked with the often arduous planning process to help shape the fabric of West Hollywood. The tour will stretch over the day and will include readings of his work by fans and friends of John. DnA associate producer Alissa Walker, who helped to produce the walk, passes along a few highlights of the tour, which you can RSVP for here.
