New 1947 Project bloggers

Now that 1947 has morphed through 1907 into 1927 (and spawned an L.A. Times imitator blog revisiting 1957), Kim Cooper and Nathan Marsak's original website is adding a couple of voices. Cosmetics historian and Union Station Conservancy tour docent Joan Renner's first post went up today. Feminist author Lynn Peril, who wrote Pink Think: Becoming a Woman in Many Uneasy Lessons and the old fanzine Mystery Date, will post on Tuesdays. The website's spin-off Esotouric tours of offbeat L.A. were recently featured in an AP story still showing up in Sunday Travel sections.
