SUMMARY:A conversation with Diane Ratican\, author of Why LA? Pourquoi Paris?
DESCRIPTION:Event Date: Monday\, March 1\, 2021\, 3pm PST\nEvent Location: Zoom event\nPlease RSVP below \nAbstract\nFor the first time\, the cities of Los Angeles and Paris are illustrated in parallel. A one-of-a-kind collectible art book\, travel guide and personal journey that compares and contrasts the history\, culture\, architecture\, fashion\, cuisine and daily life of two of the most iconic cities on the planet. For more details\, please visit the website https://whylapourquoiparis.com/. \nAbout the speaker\nDiane Ratican\, educated at University of California Berkeley in History and Sociology\, then at UCLA with a Masters in Sociology and Education\, started her career educating gifted children\, and then moved on to become a risk-taking entrepreneur. This background uniquely prepared her to engage in this latest endeavor\, as writer\, conjuror of images\, and artistic director. Sharing her enchantment with\, and knowledge of\, both Los Angeles and Paris has become a complex project with all the depth and nuances of a richly textured tapestry. As an entrepreneur\, Ratican built a highly successful business importing children’s clothing from France for upscale retailers across the U.S. Ratican’s excitement and infatuation with Paris\, her second home\, plus her enthusiasm for her resident city\, Los Angeles\, uniquely positions her to engage readers to develop their own love affair of both these dynamic destinations. Ratican is a devoted wife\, mother\, and grandmother living in Pasadena\, California. \n
