I'm honored to be the featured speaker at the Costa Mesa Historical Society's upcoming Speakers Program on Sunday, July 12. During the presentation, I'll share stories from my book, Born in OC: The Artists, Entrepreneurs, and Visionaries of Orange County, California, and discuss what I've learned from interviewing many of the people who have helped shape Orange County. The book features 50 individuals whose creativity, leadership, and vision have left a lasting impact on our community.
