John M. Cozzoli

John is curating his fabulous collection of lobby cards for our book THE ART Of The MEXICAN LOBBY CARD.

“As a fan of cowpokes, movies and the horror genre, I revel in what people love to fear through my blog From Zombos’ Closet. Growing up as a monsterkid in the 1960s and 70s, and having two theaters in my neighborhood within walking distance, it was bound to happen sooner or later.”

And his author’s portrait cannot pass without comment!

“This is me as a young cowboy. That rifle (merchandise from Steve McQueen’s Wanted Dead or Alive tv series – see below) was a love/hate relationship for me. I loved the rifle, but it kept jamming my trigger finger, painfully so, each time I pulled the trigger.”
