ABOUT THE PRESENTATION:
Neon historian, geographer and Museum of Neon Art board member Dydia DeLyser (co-author of Neon, A Light History) will take us on a trip to Los Angeles in neon’s boom years. Drawing from over a decade of in-depth research, DeLyser will show how neon signs have catalyzed urban change, and how they continue to hold appeal for our changing communities—developing with the automobile and car-and-consumer culture in the twentieth century, expanding from cities to towns, and along highways to remote roadside outposts. From the earliest luminous tubing in the 1890s to the artistic creations of today, from community-funded restorations of historic signs to ordinary-seeming business signs that have become community icons, DeLyser shows how, just as neon signs lit our past, they can now light our shared future.
ABOUT THE SPEAKER: Dydia DeLyser is a scholar, writer, and geographer working with communities to make our past meaningful in the present, and intervening to preserve our past on behalf of our future. Over decades of research, collaboration, and publishing she has developed expertise particularly in the areas of ghost towns, the “Ramona Myth” in southern California, and how neon signs transformed the American landscape and shape our communities.
ABOUT THE CLUB: Founded in 1925, the Los Angeles Breakfast Club still thrives with food, friendship, and fun.
