Please join Westside Urban Forum, Move LA, and CoMotion on March 5th at 8am for a conversation with Nick Patsaouras and his new book: The Making of Modern Los Angeles: A Chronicle. Nick arrived from Athens at age seventeen and established a successful electrical engineering company designing commercial, industrial, educational, residential, medical, institutional, religious, and entertainment projects. Nick served on several boards—from LA Metro to LADWP—and even ran for LA Mayor!
His book is a firsthand account of decisions made in public and behind the scenes over a fifty-year career that has truly made Los Angeles what it is today. Nick is a true insider whose vision and persistence prevailed and made a monumental difference. The insights and wisdom he gained from all these endeavors are woven throughout this book, making it a must-read for anyone with even a passing interest in Los Angeles’s recent past and future.
