I was a co-founder and longtime executive editor of the groundbreaking web site, where I reported from the Middle East, covered three Olympics, and wrote about politics, pop culture, literature, art, music and sports. I received my BA and MA in English literature from UC Berkeley, where I won the Mark Schorer Citation. I was born in Oakland, grew up in Berkeley and have lived in San Francisco since 1971. I am available as a speaker and give unique San Francisco walking tours by reservation. My award-winning history column "Portals of the Past" appears every other Saturday in the San Francisco Examiner. My previous book was Cool Gray City of Love: 49 Views of San Francisco. It features 16 of Paul’s superb drawings of the wildly eclectic sites that we chose together and that I write about. My latest book with artist Paul Madonna, published on Octoby Bloomsbury, is Spirits of San Francisco: Voyages Through the Unknown City.
