We are excited to have Gustavo Arellano, who wrote the introduction, discuss the book with Sam. On storefronts, alleyways, and street corners across the city, murals of the Virgin of Guadalupe grace the walls of Los Angeles in a tapestry of faith, identity, and culture. Our Lady of the Angels captures the sacred and everyday presence of Guadalupe murals across the city, offering a poignant lens into the cultural heartbeat of LA neighborhoods. Each image is a testament to community, artistry, and devotion—a visual pilgrimage through urban altars where spirituality meets street art. Whether you’re drawn to religious iconography, Latino culture, or the layered stories of LA itself, this collection invites you to see the city anew—through the lens of its most beloved saint. Sam Quinones is a Los-Angeles-based independent journalist, who worked for ten years in Mexico (1994-2004), where he wrote the first two of his four books of narrative nonfiction.
