Episode 53: Actor, producer, writer, and much-loved content creator Malia Miglino, known affectionately as LA History Girl, shares fascinating tales from her life, weaving together stories from her eerie childhood home in Seattle to her brave move to Los Angeles at 18. She opens up about her journey from working in makeup on film sets to embracing her passion for history and content creation during the pandemic, leading to her striking success on platforms like YouTube and TikTok. Malia's insight into the Victorian era in Los Angeles and her role as a historical researcher on 'Haunted Discoveries' offers a glimpse into her deep love and respect for history.
With a touch of humor and sincerity, Malia discusses the evolution of her comfort in front of the camera, her groundbreaking work in making history accessible to younger generations, and her recent collaboration with Visit Pasadena. This episode explores Malia's personal and professional growth and delves into broader topics such as the importance of storytelling in history, the challenge of preserving historic sites, and the unique, often untold stories of Los Angeles that captivate both natives and newcomers alike.
