Alison Martino of Vintage Los Angeles on the Sunset Strip, preserving LA's history and her dad, singer Al Martino
Alison Martino has been dubbed “The Godmother of Los Angeles,” and with good reason. As a writer, producer, on-air host for the Emmy-nominated SoCal Scene on Spectrum News 1, and creator of Vintage Los Angeles, she has been celebrating (and in some cases saving!) the history of this great city for years.
In this episode we discuss the history of the Sunset Strip - the places and spaces that used to be, the venues and hotspots that continue to represent its legendary past and the fate of its iconic staple, The Viper Room. She’ll also share memories of growing up in LA as the daughter of famous singer, Al Martino.
For those of you who were lucky enough to experience the Strip in the 60s, 70s and 80s, this episode will be a nostalgic trip!
