First Time in Chinatown

He lived in Los Angeles 15 years before he ever came to Chinatown.    The place faded away for most Angelenos.
But for 50 years, Chinatown was THE place to see and be seen, a place where you could just disappear into the night, where nobody cared who you were, or used to be. In Chinatown, he was free.
