Monomania L.A.

What happens when collecting becomes more than a hobby? A new series of short documentary films, in partnership with USC Libraries, profiles four "L.A. as Subject" collectors who have obsessively focused on a narrow slice of Southern California history. Featuring Carol Wells, Founder of the Center for the Study of Political Graphics; David Boule, private collector and author of "The Orange and the Dream of California"; Joseph Hawkins, Director of the ONE National Gay & Lesbian Archives at the USC Libraries; and Ernest Marquez, private collector and author of "Santa Monica Beach: A Collector's Pictorial History."
