Meeting Barbara Boxer

June 14, 2016

Yesterday, Dusty, Jean and I decided to go to the Santa Rosa Copperfield’s Book Store event to see Barbara Boxer talk about her book The Art of Tough: Fearlessly Facing Politics and Life. Prior to the event we went to Monti’s Rotisserie and Bar for dinner when Barbara Boxer and her husband and a friend came in and sat near us. Of course, I went over and introduced myself, thanked her for all she’s done, and mentioned the book I’m writing about Dusty. After their dinner she stopped and chatted with us for a while before her speech and enjoyed learning about Dusty’s achievements as a lobbyist to Congress and was impressed to hear about Dusty being the first in the country to file a discrimination complaint with the EEOC. She was also gracious enough to say she looks forward to reading my book when it is published. It was such a pleasure to meet her. Here she is signing Dusty’s book:
