Kim is the creator of 1947project, the crime-a-day time travel blog that spawned the popular Crime Bus Tours, including Pasadena Confidential, the Real Black Dahlia and Weird West Adams. When the third generation Angeleno isn't combing old newspapers for forgotten scandals, she's editing Scram (a journal of unpopular culture) and books like "Bubblegum Music is the Naked Truth," "Lost in the Grooves" and an oral history of the cult band Neutral Milk Hotel. Her campaign to save the historic 76 Balls from destruction resulted in ConocoPhillips agreeing to donate the gas station signs to museums nationwide.
