I interviewed to be the head of BAPA in 1974. I had been a city planner for nine months earning $9,000 a year when the $40,000 a year job opened up. I applied and got an interview. I thought I had died and gone to heaven, getting a big salary increase and a chance to lead planning in the old neighborhood. Of course I did not get the job.
