“Legendary Locals of the Santa Clarita Valley” is coauthored by SCV Historical Society President Alan Pollack and local film historians E.J. and Kim Stephens. E.J. co-hosts and Kim co-produces the “SCV In the Movies” series on SCVTV, featuring old films with a Santa Clarita Valley angle.

Their book tells the stories of “cowboys, Native Americans, outlaws, farmers, shepherds, soldiers, miners, range warriors, ranchers, saloon keepers, stagecoach drivers, railroaders, town drunks, teetotalers, engineers, land speculators, explorers, missionaries, actors and common folk that make the history of the Santa Clarita Valley so compelling.”
