Book Description
Girl in a Pink Skirt is a memoir of World War II days. It is not about important people in high places, bloody battlefields or famous military campaigns. Rather, it is a lightly told story of the times and of the ordinary people, both men and women, both civilian and military who served behind the men, behind the guns that won the war. Little known details of life on the home front, as well as in the military service, are exquisitely told, including the hilarious adventures of a young woman in the fledgling Women's Army Corps. The thread of a love story runs throughout the book giving it the feel of a novel rather than that of a true-life experience. The pages ring with charm and simplicity and with the author's own special brand of self-effacing humor. Girl in a Pink Skirt is bound to be among the last of the firsthand accounts of one of the most momentous eras in all of human history.

Book Description
On summer nights on downtown Los Angeles's Bunker Hill, Grand Performances presents free public concerts for the people of the city. A hip hop orchestra, a mariachi musician, an Afropop singer, and a Chinese modern dance company are just a few examples of the eclectic range of artists employed to reflect the diversity of LA itself. At these concerts, shared experiences of listening and dancing to the music become sites for the recognition of some of the general aspirations for the performances, for Los Angeles, and for contemporary public life. In Sound, Space, and the City, Marina Peterson explores the processes—from urban renewal to the performance of ethnicity and the experiences of audiences—through which civic space is created at downtown performances. Along with archival materials on urban planning and policy, Peterson draws extensively on her own participation with Grand Performances, ranging from working in an information booth answering questions about the artists and the venue, to observing concerts and concert-goers as an audience member, to performing onstage herself as a cellist with the daKAH Hip Hop orchestra. The book offers an exploration of intersecting concerns of urban residents and scholars today that include social relations and diversity, public space and civic life, privatization and suburbanization and economic and cultural globalization. At a moment when cities around the world are undertaking similar efforts to revitalize their centers, Sound, Space, and the City conveys the underlying tensions of such projects and their relevance for understanding urban futures.
