Author and journalist Anne Da Vigo joins Lois to talk about her books and her process.
Anne's journalism career (specializing in feature writing and crime reporting), spanned more than a dozen years at newspapers throughout California. Her latest -- Bakersfield Boys Club -- was loosely inspired by the Lords of Bakersfield murders of the 1970s and 1980s. Da Vigo covered the trial in the first of the Lords murder cases.
She is the author of a previous thriller -- Thread of Gold -- and numerous short stories. She is also part of the Blue Moon writers' group that meets weekly in Davis; and, as always, continues to write.
The finale of today's show is two Merle Haggard songs about Bakersfield.
(This aired two weeks in a row -- 2 Dec and 9 Dec 2021.)

Well we didn't actually play any Beatles tunes, but we did spend a lot of time (both on- and off-mic) chatting about Peter Jackson's amazing new documentary, The Beatles: Get Back. And we did "get back" to the business of bringing you great tracks from Reg Meuross, Chatham Rabbits, Greensky Bluegrass, Kristi Flagg, Martin Hayes/Dennis Cahill, and ISHILA. And Brother Bill went down the proverbial rabbit hole while he explored young banjo phenom Nora Brown's musical touchstones.
