DRIVING THROUGH THE QUIET STREETS of Altadena nearly a year after the deadly Eaton Fire devastated the area, you notice the oak trees still standing. The debris has been cleared, leaving only foundations and driveways where historic homes once stood.

But those trees remain, and a fresh blanket of leaves and grass has sprouted after recent rains. The lushness and peace that lure people to this close-knit foothill community in northeast Los Angeles, the "Alta-Dreamers," as residents actor/ singer Mandy Moore, who is starring in the upcoming film The Breadwinner, and musician Taylor Goldsmith describe themselves, is apparent, even through this devastating lens. The morning mist, the shade, and the small-town feel draw people in and won't let go.
