Photographer's caption reads, "Bart Carlson worked 22 years for the LAPD: undercover, the drug squad, even the notorious CRASH unit. When he retired he started his own security company specializing in celebrities and movie stars. He claims to have guarded Madonna, Michael Jordan, and Michael Jackson with his pet chimp Bubbles. So why did I find him late at night working a two-bit commercial shoot south of Melrose Avenue? "I've been married three times," Bart explained. "I've lost houses, cars, boats, you name it. That's why I've got to keep working.""
