Title: Contributor

We’re really happy you’re writing for the paper again. What was it about Angela Perko’s work that brought you back to reporting? I think Perko is one of the best-kept secrets in our city and one of our greatest artists. I also love her story, which is quintessential Santa Barbara: she ran (with her husband) the Lost Horizon bookstore and eventually found among the books her true calling.
