Making the Ordinary Extraordinary: My Seven Years in Occult Los Angeles with Manly Palmer Hall

This is an intimate portrait of Manly P. Hall and the occult scene of 1980s Los Angeles. The author and her boyfriend befriended Hall. He adopted her as his “girl Friday” and personal weirdo screener, granting her access to the inner circles of occult Los Angeles. The book, The Secret Teachings of All Ages, awakened underground musicians Tamra Lucid and Ronnie Pontiac to esoteric teachings. They discovered Hall, a master teacher of Hermetic mysteries, lived in LA and lectured every Sunday at his mystery school, the Philosophical Research Society (PRS). After their first lecture, they started volunteering and began a seven-year friendship with Hall.
