Immigrant. Dropout. Entrepreneur. Restauranter. Real estate developer. Movie producer. Philanthropist. These are only a few titles Izek Shomof, the so-called King of Spring Street, has carried throughout his fascinating life. Each of these monikers tells a part of Izek’s unbelievable tale, but the whole story has never been told—until now. Dreams Don’t Die is not your typical, run-of-the-mill immigrant story. It is the memoir of a man who had every opportunity to take unethical and often-illegal shortcuts but who instead chose the lesser-trod path of honesty and integrity.

I like how he describes his projects all over Los Angeles. I used to work near South Spring Street in the 1980s so I’m aware of those historic buildings he was describing. I also like to learn about the hurdles he had to go through, whether it was dealing with government red tape, or lawsuit against a dishonest business partner who cheated, or life events that didn’t pan out exactly as expected… I like how he tried to turn things around whenever a negotiation that wasn’t going anywhere productive. I like how he looked beyond political or philosophical differences. Lots of life lessons in this book.
