Category: Griffith Park

Learning about City Hall from the treetops.

It’s all about Griffith Park, baby! Let’s keep it wild and safe. And let’s keep Silver Lake birds and animals alive, and the water clean.

I’ll bring up all the things that annoy me, and what I’m doing to change them. Your comments and opinions are welcome. (Assuming you’re not one of the annoying ones.) (Just kidding.) (I hope.)

Curious about this Silver Lake runner and Griffith Park ranter? Donna Barstow.

Donna Barstow, Griffith Park lover

I’ve lived in Silver Lake and Los Feliz for over 25 years. I was part of the PROS Committee in Greater Griffith Park Neighborhood Council and am on the Housing & Tenants Rights Committee in the Silver Lake Neighborhood Council. We do good things.

Jill Stewart writes about how I fight City Hall.

I wrote several articles for the LA Weekly, including my fave: CAN CANADA’S KILLER COYOTE SPECIES SHOW UP IN LOS ANGELES?

Editorial in Los Feliz Ledger, another casualty of Covid, as of December, 2021. :(
