MICHAEL HINRICH
Blog Editor
Michael Hinrich, AKA Michael H, has been a Lakers fan since his 5th grade basketball coach, who had played with Wilt Chamberlain at Kansas, turned him into a Wilt fan and Lakers fan when Wilt was traded to L.A.
Another expat from the LA Times Lakers Blog, where he met LakerTom and Jamie Sweet, Michael’s stream of consciousness writing style and savvy intelligence is refreshing and invites conversation and response.
As far as day jobs, Michael has been a councilor, truck washer, bank V.P., and semi-professional writer who just published his first novel. He currently works part-time designing greenhouse systems and just enjoying the good life in Hawaii.
