Tarantino and his mother left Knoxville, TN when he was two years old and settled in Los Angeles. After leaving school, he held a succession of odd jobs before finding his niche at Video Archives where, for five years, he regaled customers, including many low-profile industry players, with his passionate opinions and recommendations. There Tarantino first met the film school-trained Roger Avary, his future collaborator on the screenplays for "Reservoir Dogs" (1992), "True Romance" (1993) and "Pulp Fiction" (although the exact nature of their work together remains in dispute).

I'm not LW, but I did find this rather detailed bio of Tarantino.

Thanks, Phoenix. To my knowledge, the bio has it right -- he didn't work in a video store prior to the now well-known stint at Video Archives, which, I think is no longer open. It was once famous for having the best collection of older cinema.
