Literary CSUDH
A "Literary Los Angeles" article appeared in the "Book Review" section of the Sunday Los Angeles Times last spring. It cited published university authors and editors in the Los Angeles area, and inadvertently overlooked CSUDH in its compilation. Tim Woodhull, media relations director, compiled a report of CSUDH faculty and staff authors. Woodhull notes "these members of the campus community, whose works span the wide spectrum of fiction and non-fiction, deserve recognition." Following are the results of his survey. If we have "inadvertently" missed someone, please let us know. - The Editor
