About the Los Angeles Area Chapter

Welcome to the Los Angeles Area EFA Chapter page. EFA-LA is open to all EFA members in the Los Angeles area. If you fall a little outside the area—from the desert to the sea—consider yourself welcome too.

Our next chapter meeting will be in October. We are planning a joint chapter meeting featuring a guest author. Further details will follow as plans are finalized.

Our July chapter meeting featured guest speaker Jamaal D. Pittman, author of The Copy Editor’s (Life)Style Guide. He discussed his background, his inspiration for writing the book, and how copyeditors can make changes to discover (or rediscover) the joy in the profession. Twenty-two members attended.
