THERESE POLETTI
talk, slideshow & booksigning for "Art Deco San Francisco: The Architecture of Timothy Pflueger"
Thursday, November 13 at 7:30 pm

The Castro Theatre, the Pacific Telephone and Telegraph Headquarters, 450 Sutter Medical-Dental Building - these masterpieces of San Francisco architecture are the work of one man: Timothy Pflueger. While his contemporaries looked to beaux arts traditions, Pflueger brought exotic and art deco forms to buildings ranging from simple cocktail lounges to the city’s first skyscrapers. Therese Poletti tells his fascinating story in "Art Deco San Francisco: The Architecture of Timothy Pflueger."


Therese Poletti has been a journalist for nearly twenty years. She has written for the San Jose Mercury News, and currently works for MarketWatch as a technology columnist.
