Hollywood Royale.
HOLLYWOOD ROYALE: Out of the School of Los Angeles is both a book and an exhibition by noted celebrity photographer Matthew Rolston.

More than just an examination of Rolston’s work, this talk, including a video and slideshow, will encompass the true meaning of Hollywood glamour, its origins, demise and modern resurrection.
