Tamar Galatzan: School board to City Council?

In the Bottleneck blog, The Times' Steve Hymon considers what might happen if Wendy Greuel leaves her 2nd District City Council seat to run for another office.

He talked to Tamar Galatzan, who won a seat on the L.A. Unified school board last year. About the District 2 seat, she said in part, "I'm flattered that my name has come up and people have been talking to me about it and it's something I'm considering."

There's more.

And this is a shock, why?

It was brought up numerous times during the election campaign, but apparently more people were interested in attacking Jon Lauritzen than questioning the aspirations of someone with no public school experience. At least when Tamar's kids end up in private school, as her friend the Mayor's children did, she won't have to explain it away.
