Show Notes
<p><span class="Apple-style-span"><strong>John Leighton Chase</strong> was a fantastic character and dear friend to many. He also worked below the radar to make a profound impact on West Hollywood, where he was urban designer. John died suddenly last week at the age of 57. Frances Anderton remembers him with <strong>Ann McIntosh</strong> of the City of West Hollywood; <strong>Richard Loring</strong>, developer; <strong>Alan Hess</strong>, architecture historian; <strong>Margaret Crawford</strong>, professor of architecture. Also, we get under the surface of <em>Mad Men's</em> costumes with Emmy-nominated costume designer<strong> Janie Bryant</strong>.</span></p>
