I love Los Angeles, so I jam-pack as much as I can into every visit here — but Michael's studio nearly stymied me. It's very, very hard to leave this urban treehouse planted conveniently between Hollywood and Los Feliz. The space is superb, complete with a great work desk, sleek and functional kitchen, and a large, comfy sofa. It's not possible to overstate how great the projector setup is. The windows and small patio open onto a verdant back yard and quiet residential street. When I did muster the strength to depart, I was instantly in the thick of Los Angeles, even on foot. Wow. I'll be back. Thanks, Michael!
