She gets around: Altadena’s Michelle Huneven seems to be everywhere this week: in the LA Weekly, she’s one of the “fascinating Angelenos” (but we’ve known that for about 20 years). The Weekly’s Sarah Fenske looks at our local literary goddess. An excerpt: “Their house is situated on the large, rambling sort of lot you seldom see in the L.A. area outside Altadena; there are two vegetable gardens, a small writing studio and citrus and olive trees.” Check it out here.
