Re: “Was Lorenzo Hoopes a Worthy Board Member for the Paramount?”
I’ve known Ren Hoopes for over 50 years. As a teenager I stood on freeway overpasses on election day with a campaign sign proclaiming “Vote for Hoopes for Oakland School Board”–selfless service which he gave for many, many years. He has been successful and consistent with his community service throughout his life. He is a man without animosity or guile, and much beloved and universally respected by those who know him best. His service (and his generosity) with the Paramount Theatre of the Arts is legendary and exemplary. The entire community–-LBGT and straight alike-–should be unified in supporting him at this time.
