Villaraigosa

Art of the photo op

creditMayor Villaraigosa met the school board's admiral today, and both came out saying the right things. "We have the same vision�.This is going to be a great partnership," LAUSD superintendent-to-be David Brewer told the post-game news conference at City Hall. Villaraigosa agreed: "I like what I see. I couldn't be happier.� He's the right guy for the job." Ok Ok, but check out the photo. This is the first picture I've seen of the mayor's third-floor inner sanctum since Villaraigosa moved in. I've been meaning to describe the office, since he has changed Jim Hahn's decor a bit, but now you can see for yourselves. Fuller size after the jump, along with a closeup of the protagonists smiling. (Times story and video)
