The Codebreaker Who Cracked the Black Dahlia and Zodiac Cases.
Alex Baber in conversation with Michael Connelly, Rick Jackson, Mitzi Roberts, and David Tresmontan. A fundraising event for The Eugene O’Neill Foundation, Tao House.

Alex Baber broke the Zodiac Killer’s code, which enabled him not only to identify Marvin Margolis as the Zodiac Killer, but also to prove that Margolis murdered Elizabeth Short, the Black Dahlia. Three of America’s most formidable cold case detective—Rick Jackson, Mitzi Roberts, and David Tresmontan—stake their reputations on the validity of Baber’s conclusions.

Listen to Michael Connelly’s podcast, “Killer in the Code.” Then join us at the Village Theatre on Feb. 21 as Connelly, Jackson, Roberts, and Tresmontan draw out Alex on how he managed to solve two of America’s most mystifying cold cases. Questions will be taken from audience members.
