Eddie Little (August 25, 1955–May 20, 2003) was a writer most associated with the books Another Day in Paradise (which was later made into film directed by Larry Clark) and Steel Toes, as well as various articles in the LA Weekly. His books are rugged portrayals of youth and heroin addiction, which he had managed to kick whilst writing his books but eventually led to his death by overdose in a motel room on May 20, 2003.
