Today’s guest is Deborah Weintraub, Chief Deputy City Engineer for the Bureau of Engineering in the City of Los Angeles’ Department of Public Works. Deborah is the first architect and woman to hold the position, and in this role has overseen projects like the LA River Revitalization Master Plan and the 6th Street Viaduct, which is currently under construction. Through this work, she had made major contributions to the city and its future, applying her architectural background and training to engineering projects large and small. Her impact on the city we know today, and the city we will experience 30 years from now, is undeniable. Prior to her time with the City, Deborah also worked in private practice in New York and California, and she gained expertise in sustainability through her work with the Canadian Consulate and Southern California Edison. Deborah’s career is fascinating because of these varied experiences she's had as an architect, and in each position, she really embraced the impact she could have.
