West Hollywood

Meer over het boek

The narrative explores the evolution of West Hollywood from its origins as Sherman, a rail yard town, to its pivotal role in the Hollywood film industry. During Prohibition, it became a hub for entertainment, earning nicknames like "Hollywood's Soul." The community, primarily composed of renters, Jewish, gay, and senior residents, sought to establish their own identity, leading to its incorporation in 1984. Since then, West Hollywood has emerged as a symbol of tolerance and inclusivity, attracting diverse populations seeking refuge and acceptance.
