Mayor Newsome appointed Edwin Lee at City Hall














I was hired to photography the installation of City Administrator Edwin Lee at the San Francisco City Hall. Mr. Lee has held many positions in City Government since 1989. Mayor Gavin Newsome appointed him and said that he was "the perfect candidate for the job". I noticed when Mayor Newsome arrived, everyone's eyes were set on him like magnet. The mayor was very tall, and even more handsome then his appearance on TV. He's got a celebritity-like aura that drew people's attention. During the dinner reception, I had an opportunity to take a photo with the mayor. Perhaps some day it shall become precious.
