Saturday, October 15, 2011 11:00 AM-1:00 PM, Tokyo Buffet, 7217 Greenback Ln, Citrus Heights, CA. DETAILS

IMPORTANT: This is ANOTHER new location for our monthly lunch meetings.  The El Torito restaurant CLOSED.

Topic: Michael Troyan, author of “MGM: Hollywood’s Greatest Backlots”, will speak on coffee table books.

Michael is a freelance writer and has worked as an archivist and consultant at two of Hollywood’s major studios. A lifelong fan of Hollywood’s classic films, he has parlayed that interest into a variety of books about MGM and The Walt Disney Studios as author, co-author, or contributor. His books include A Rose for Mrs. Miniver; The Life of Greer Garson, about M-G-M’s reigning Queen of the Lot in the 1940s and 1950s– which is enjoying its third printing and recently went into paperback. Mike has also contributed to Disney A-Z, The Disney Villains, and The Disney Poster Book. He lives in northern California.

Monthly luncheon is open to the public. Cost is $12 for members, $14 for nonmembers.
