James Cahill is back on the ITBR! The British author and critic joins Dr. Andrew Rimby for a profile feature on David Hockney and the painting at the heart of his book, "The Beverly Hills Housewife"!
Why did Hockney go blonde, and what did Los Angeles do to his color? We dive into the profile of Betty Freeman and David Hockney, from a mill town in Bradford to the California sun, and why one woman stepping into her garden still feels like a film still.
