Description
Matt Frost has been a Venice resident all of his life. He had been living at this house on Carroll Court, just off Carroll Canal, for over 20 years. But with many property owners cashing in on the real estate boom of the late 1990's and 2000's, Matt was forced to move out when the owners sold the house in 2004. He has appeared as himself in TV commercials and in several movies (Streets of Fire, Terminator 2, and The Mask, to name a few). The Harley parked at the side of the house has been with him since 1970. Photograph dated December 2003.
