About this listen

Fashion icon, Broadway and Hollywood insider, mob mistress, confidante to notorious gang members of both Crips and Bloods, wife, mother, award-winning journalist, Lon Bing has not followed the typical path through life. From her formative relationship with her mother to her days as a star model to her sisterly relationship with Mama Cass Elliot and ultimate reinvention as the author of the best-selling gang expos, Do or Die, Swans and Pistols details Bing's always exciting and sometimes dangerous life.

In a series of riveting stories of unconventionality, Bing wrestles with the themes of mothers, daughters, and reinvention - a concept inseparable from the experience of her early adult life in the 1960s and the city she called home.
