Citizens of the World can Special Order "Tosh: Growing Up in Wallace Berman's World" (City Lights)


Dear Future Readers, I just want to let you know that you can now special order my book "Tosh" Growing up in Wallace Berman's World" at your local bookstore. What you do is call or go into your local store, give them the title above, and then if you need to, give them the ISBN number which is 9780872867604. And I believe a foreign bookstore can order the book for you as well. Ingram is a wholesaler that sells books to bookstores, and they now have my book in their warehouse. So order away, and enjoy reading my book - Tosh Berman. Photo by Lacy Soto at the Artbook location in Los Angeles.

TOSH BERMAN DISCUSSES HIS MEMOIR "TOSH" WITH JASON SCHWARTZMAN at the fantastic, wonderful, and one of my second-homes, Skylight Books in my (I do own) Los Angeles. Bookstores mean a lot to me. I like going to the store, and hanging out, and just noticing not only the books on the shelves but also the people who come in and out like a wave hitting a beach. Like being in a record store, I never ever had a bad time in a bookstore. Skylight Books is (sort of ) walkable from my headquarters, and a delight in every visit. Also, they have a killer Graphic Comic section. Do support your local book store. For one, you can preorder my book, signed, and they will even mail it to you, wherever you leave your hat (or wig). For those who will go, here's the info:

Dennis Hopper was an old friend of my dad, Wallace Berman.  Here's an interview he gave for Arte.tv regarding knowing and hanging out with my dad. I wrote about this in my book "Tosh: Growing Up in Wallace Berman's World" (City Lights)   Thanks to Kevin Bradford for bringing this footage to my attention.
