Martin Turnbull

Martin Turnbull's love for travel, history, and Hollywood led him from Melbourne, Australia, to the heart of Los Angeles in the mid-90s. His background in travel and guiding, including work with the Los Angeles Conservancy and Warner Bros., equipped him with deep knowledge of Hollywood’s golden era. This expertise inspired the Hollywood’s Garden of Allah historical fiction series set between 1927 and 1959, which explores Hollywood’s glamour through the lives of residents at the real-life Garden of Allah Hotel on Sunset Boulevard. Martin continues to bring his passion for history to life through his writing.
