Who is Charles Phoenix?

From the classic to the kitsch, Charles Phoenix loves to celebrate Southern California life and style. The entertainer, author and pop culture expert is known for his hilarious retro slide shows, popular coffee table books – including Southern California in the Fifties and Southern Californialand, and fun-filled school bus field trip tours. His keen eye for detail, gracious sense of humor and infectious enthusiasm have gained him a cult following. Charles is also a recurring correspondent for NPR’s Day to Day and the Martha Stewart Show (see enclosed LA Weekly article for more highlights on Charles). http://charlesphoenix.com/

KOCE-TV plans to bring Charles and his field trips to TV soon–once sponsorship is secured to produce his half hour program each week. If you, your company or someone you know would like to be a sponsor, or benefit from sponsoring Charles’ program, contact KOCE-TV today. A regular weekly series on public television is a great way for Charles to share Californialand with this entire area!
