Michael Niotta
J. Michael Niotta, grandson of famed Angeleno Jack Dragna, writes of an L.A. kept from the palm-tree-packed brochures. The SoCal native who hates the sun and never learned to surf gained notoriety in custom culture magazines and onstage as a touring upright bassist. The former plumber and mechanic now holds a business doctorate but still sports a blue collar. The Iraqi Freedom veteran with fifteen years of service is a member of OSIA, Conquistadors C.C. and the Rosie Network's Service2CEO program.
