Interview with Mina Chow
<p>In episode 20, we’re putting the “LA” in XX|LA by speaking with an architect who is also a film maker! Mina Chow is an architect and professor at the USC School of Architecture. She is also the director, producer, and star of the documentary <em>Face of a Nation: What Happened to the World’s Fair?</em> The film is about Mina’s journey as an idealistic architect and daughter of immigrants, as she discovers why America abandoned World’s Fairs. Michael Sorkin calls it an “urgently dispiriting but ultimately tender and optimistic film.” This is a description I agree with wholeheartedly.</p>
