Dreams from Bunker Hill: An Origin Story Fante JohnPaperback
My first collision with fame was hardly memorable. The year was 1934. I was a busboy at Marx's Deli.
I was twenty-one years old, living in a world bounded on the west by Bunker Hill, on the east by Los Angeles Street, on the south by Pershing Square, and on the north by Civic Center. The place was Third and Hill, Los Angeles. I was a busboy nonpareil, with great verve and style for the profession, and though I was dreadfully underpaid (one dollar a day plus meals) I attracted considerable attention as I whirled from table to table, balancing a tray on one hand, and eliciting smiles from my customers.
I had something else beside a waiter's skill to offer my patrons, for I was also a writer.
