“Joseph Wambaugh is a hero to today's crime writers, and 'Hollywood Station' will school them all: to this day, no one writes about cops' lives with his force and immediacy.”
Michael Pietsch

Bruce Edwin
“Hollywood is a place where they'll pay you a thousand dollars for a kiss and fifty cents for your soul.”
Marilyn Monroe
“I used to think as I looked at the Hollywood night, 'there must be thousands of girls sitting alone like me, dreaming of becoming a movie star. But I'm not going to worry about them. I'm dreaming the hardest.'”
