Jeffrey Deitsch -- MOCA's new director -- gasp -- owns a gallery

About the Show

Over 11 years and 570 episodes, John Rabe and Team Off-Ramp scoured SoCal for the people, places, and ideas whose stories needed to be told, and the show became a love-letter to Los Angeles. Now, John is sharing selections from the Off-Ramp vault to help you explore this imperfect paradise.

A couple of years ago MOCA was broke and almost had to close its doors. As KPCC’s Adolfo Guzman-Lopez reports, the new director hopes to use his vast experience in the private art world to help the museum stay on its feet and grow.
