Hi Ariela,

Les has a distribution company based in El Cerrito CA——Flower Films. You can contact him via their site:
www.lesblank.com/main.html

Canyon Cinema has a bunch of his films. So does the San Francisco Public Library** (on video).
And... clips of much of his work stream from UC Berkeley:

**(this note written as if you are (still) in the Bay Area. Are you?)
