Carl Nolte has been thinking a lot about the San Francisco Bay–an estuary so famous it gives its name to the whole region–and the ways it has shaped and been shaped by so many histories. From explorers, writers, shipwrecks, environmental activists, Chinese Junks, more than a dozen islands, several famous bridges, and a scenic delta at the heart of California’s longest-running crisis, Nolte will explore the Bay’s rich geographic and cultural legacy, give a reading from his book-in-progress, tentatively titled Tales of the Golden Gate, and solicit audience participation and feedback on the ideas he will discuss.
