Catalina High School Preservation Campaign
(1992 - 93)
Spoke out in defense of preserving this classic Tucson modern building (designed by Nicholas Sakellar, 1956) when the TUSD School Board considered razing it and replacing it with a new structure. With Jim Gresham, Kirby Lockard, Jeff Barr and Guy Greene, formed the "Committee for a Second Opinion on Catalina High." Helped orchestrate both public opposition and lobbying effort to prevent demolition.
STATUS: succeeded in saving the building.
