James Patrick Milo (1911-1969) got his start in photography as an assistant of Bruce of L.A.(see 6.16.10). His work is often confused with that of his West Coast neighbors Dave Martin and Bruce becouse of the same high quality of the lighting and composition and same shared models as Larry Scott and Bernie Ernst. Pat was forced to drop out of school early to help his poor irish family. When some of semi-nude photos he shooted to young guys were discovered by his father, Pat was thrown out. Working as a cook he met Lyle Frisby, together they opened a photography studio but it had no success. Lyle decided to move to Los Angeles after contacting Bruce Bellas; Pat went to California a year later.
