"bio": "• I write and edit stories about how Silicon Valley power and policies shape everyday life in California. I’m also passionate about making Bay Area history and culture more accessible to a broad public. • I’ve been a journalist for most of my life, starting in high school with The Franklin Press in Los Angeles, where I grew up. While earning my first degree in English at UC Berkeley, I got my start in public radio at KALX-FM. After completing a second degree in journalism at Cal, I landed my first professional job at Marketplace, then moved on to KPCC (now LAist), and then KQED, where I hosted The California Report for more than seven years. • My reporting has appeared on NPR, The World, WBUR’s \u003ci>Here & Now\u003c/i>, and the BBC. I also guest host for KQED’s \u003ci>Forum\u003c/i>, as well as the Commonwealth Club in San Francisco. • I speak periodically on media, democracy and technology issues, and do voiceover work for documentaries and educational video projects. • Outside of the studio, you'll find me hiking Bay Area trails and whipping up Insta-ready meals in my kitchen. • I do not accept gifts, money, or favors from anyone connected to my reporting, I don't pay people for information, and I do not support or donate to political causes. • I strive to treat the people I report on with fairness, honesty, and respect. I also recognize there are often multiple sides to a story and work to verify information through multiple sources and documentation. If I get something wrong, I correct it.",

Anthony Jr. , a conductor for \u003ca href=\"http://www.operasj.org/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Opera San Jose\u003c/a>, explains what Holy Cross meant to his parents and grandparents. “When you’re an Italian-American immigrant, you come here with nothing, and you’re working over there picking prunes all day. The only place you find a little hope and solace for your family, and stability, is in the church: the prayer services, and all the meetings, the pasta feeds, and everything else. It was a center. It was an oasis.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Their father, Anthony Quartuccio, immigrated here from Monreale, Sicily in the 1930s. His first job was picking prunes on bended knees. “All that beautiful earth,” exclaims Joe Quartuccio, who works at \u003ca href=\"http://www.originaljoes.com/history.htm\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Original Joe’s\u003c/a>, the Italian steak house downtown. “My father used to call it the richest earth in the world. You can plant anything in this valley. And a lot of the Italians migrated here because of that reason.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Their eyes all light up thinking of when they were children. It’s a measure of the joy of that childhood that they all still live in San Jose now. Many American-born Italians moved on and out, but there are still numerous organizations that keep the flame of memory alive in San Jose, including \u003ca href=\"http://sonsofsicily.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Sons of Sicily\u003c/a>, the\u003ca href=\"http://siciliansisterhood.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> Sicilian Sisterhood\u003c/a>, and of course, Holy Cross.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_10382988\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\" style=\"max-width: 400px\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2014/12/RS13769_10481331_1499256617013368_7316085896852057749_n-qut.jpg\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-10382988 size-thumbnail\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2014/12/RS13769_10481331_1499256617013368_7316085896852057749_n-qut-400x266.jpg\" alt=\"The Mural of Jesus at Holy Cross Church in San Jose.

And believe it or not, he did. That face of Christ just follows you. And it was devastating to know that was destroyed.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Anthony Jr. ran to the church on the day of the fire to see for himself.

(Rachael Myrow/KQED)\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Joseph, Janet, Maryann and Anthony Jr. have come together to reflect on a Little Italy long gone, even before the fire. Anthony Jr. , a conductor for \u003ca href=\"http://www.operasj.org/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Opera San Jose\u003c/a>, explains what Holy Cross meant to his parents and grandparents. “When you’re an Italian-American immigrant, you come here with nothing, and you’re working over there picking prunes all day. The only place you find a little hope and solace for your family, and stability, is in the church: the prayer services, and all the meetings, the pasta feeds, and everything else. It was a center. It was an oasis.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Their father, Anthony Quartuccio, immigrated here from Monreale, Sicily in the 1930s. His first job was picking prunes on bended knees. “All that beautiful earth,” exclaims Joe Quartuccio, who works at \u003ca href=\"http://www.originaljoes.com/history.htm\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Original Joe’s\u003c/a>, the Italian steak house downtown. “My father used to call it the richest earth in the world. You can plant anything in this valley. And a lot of the Italians migrated here because of that reason.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Their eyes all light up thinking of when they were children. It’s a measure of the joy of that childhood that they all still live in San Jose now. Many American-born Italians moved on and out, but there are still numerous organizations that keep the flame of memory alive in San Jose, including \u003ca href=\"http://sonsofsicily.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Sons of Sicily\u003c/a>, the\u003ca href=\"http://siciliansisterhood.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> Sicilian Sisterhood\u003c/a>, and of course, Holy Cross.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_10382988\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\" style=\"max-width: 400px\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2014/12/RS13769_10481331_1499256617013368_7316085896852057749_n-qut.jpg\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-10382988 size-thumbnail\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2014/12/RS13769_10481331_1499256617013368_7316085896852057749_n-qut-400x266.jpg\" alt=\"The Mural of Jesus at Holy Cross Church in San Jose.

(Courtesy Nancy Frausto-Ramirez)\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Back in the late 1970s, Anthony Quartuccio painted the mural of Jesus hovering over Jerusalem in the cupola. His day job was delivering mail at NASA’s Ames Research Center at Moffett Field, but his passion was painting, and the longer he stuck to it, the bigger the commissions he got.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Maryann Quartuccio, who works for the locally well-known Cortese family, was 15 or 16 when she watched her father paint the panels in in the kitchen. “He spent an entire month on the face of Jesus alone,” she recalls. “He was so adamant about making that perfect. And believe it or not, he did. That face of Christ just follows you. And it was devastating to know that was destroyed.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Anthony Jr. ran to the church on the day of the fire to see for himself. As he stood in the street crying, people driving by recognized him. “People rolled down the window. ‘Hey, Quartuccio! Did they save your father’s painting?’”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That mural is gone forever. What the Quartuccios pray for now is the future of the church-the soul, as they see it, of Northside San Jose.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

(Olivia Allen-Price/KQED)\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>This didn’t just start. It’s been going on for about five years. According to official statistics from the San Jose Police Department, the rate of burglaries for every 100,000 San Jose residents has gone up by more than 40 percent since 2009. The rate of auto theft is up 51 percent.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There are many reasons but the biggest one, residents say, is that there simply aren’t enough police officers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We would like to see good complete law enforcement all across the board,” said David Eggulston, a Willow Glen resident.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The San Jose Police Department has lost about 380 cops over the last five years. The department was at a high point in staffing when the 2008 recession hit, and the force has dwindled steadily ever since.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Hayward Police Chief Diane Urban was on the San Jose police force for 25 years. She says the worst of the cuts hit the force in 2011.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I will tell you I still have stress, post-traumatic stress, from the week I left,” Urban said. “The day it was announced I was becoming chief in Hayward, we gave about 84 pink slips out to our police officers.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>To cope with the ongoing budget cuts, the department started closing down special units: the violent crime enforcement team and the burglary unit.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Any chief in the country is going to tell you that the No. 1 priority is to staff patrol,” Urban said. “So when you can no longer staff patrol effectively, to have enough men and women on the streets to protect people when they pick up the phone, you have to start closing down units.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_10345514\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 488px\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2014/10/image-1.jpeg\">\u003cimg class=\" wp-image-10345514\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2014/10/image-1.jpeg\" alt=\"Residents of San Jose's Evergreen neighborhood gather at city hall to demand action to reduce crime.

(Beth Willon/KQED)\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Today, according to a San Jose police spokesman, the department has one burglary detective to serve a city of 1 million people.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There are no longer detectives to make the follow-up phone calls, dust for fingerprints and talk to victims.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While budget cuts led to the biggest loss of police in San Jose, pension reform has become the flashpoint of the mayoral race. San Jose voters in 2012 approved reforms that changed disability benefits and asked city employees to contribute more to their pensions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some former San Jose police officers say it’s one reason they left the force. Ten of them are now with the Hayward Police Department. George Beattie, who once headed the Police Officers Association in San Jose, said in Hayward he gets better pay and benefits.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Every officer, including those who came before and after me, says they came for the same reason -- financial security,” said Beattie, now Hayward PD’s personnel and training administrator.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Actually, the city lost a small number of officers after pension reform compared with what happened after the recession.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"pullquote alignright\">'It’s really going to change the area if it becomes unsafe.

And each is trying to convince voters he’s the one who can make the city safer.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Violent crime was higher when I came into office in 2007 -- and Dave Cortese was vice mayor -- than it was last year,” Liccardo said at the Santa Clara County Bench/Bar debate last month.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Cortese shot back: “I think it lacks credibility to say people feel safe in their neighborhood, that we are safer than we were six, seven or eight years ago.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Voters like Brian Tran just want officers to show up when they have a problem. And that’s why he was outside the San Jose City Council chambers last week with roughly 100 homeowners from the city’s Evergreen neighborhood.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Tran asked how many people had been crime victims, and several dozen raised their hands. Last month, there were 95 reported burglaries in Evergreen. Tran’s house was ransacked in August.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I’ve lived in the United States for 35 years -- first time I’m speaking out,\" Tran said. “What’s being done to the people in Evergreen, being done to San Jose, is not fair.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Tran and other residents want more than rhetoric from the next mayor. They want neighborhood command centers, more police and more patrols -- whether it’s in middle-class Evergreen or affluent Willow Glen.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Lissa Minkin of Willow Glen says the quality of life in her neighborhood is deteriorating.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“And we know there are issues with San Jose as a whole in terms of not having enough police coverage,” Minkin said. “So I really want to see that change. Because it’s really going to change the area if it becomes unsafe. People are not going to want to live here anymore, which is terrible, because it is a wonderful neighborhood.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Many San Jose voters say the candidate who can convince them they’ll get their peace of mind back will likely become the next mayor of this sprawling suburban city.\u003c/p>\n\n",

(Olivia Allen-Price/KQED)\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>This didn’t just start. It’s been going on for about five years. According to official statistics from the San Jose Police Department, the rate of burglaries for every 100,000 San Jose residents has gone up by more than 40 percent since 2009. The rate of auto theft is up 51 percent.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There are many reasons but the biggest one, residents say, is that there simply aren’t enough police officers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We would like to see good complete law enforcement all across the board,” said David Eggulston, a Willow Glen resident.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The San Jose Police Department has lost about 380 cops over the last five years. The department was at a high point in staffing when the 2008 recession hit, and the force has dwindled steadily ever since.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Hayward Police Chief Diane Urban was on the San Jose police force for 25 years. She says the worst of the cuts hit the force in 2011.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I will tell you I still have stress, post-traumatic stress, from the week I left,” Urban said. “The day it was announced I was becoming chief in Hayward, we gave about 84 pink slips out to our police officers.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>To cope with the ongoing budget cuts, the department started closing down special units: the violent crime enforcement team and the burglary unit.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Any chief in the country is going to tell you that the No. 1 priority is to staff patrol,” Urban said. “So when you can no longer staff patrol effectively, to have enough men and women on the streets to protect people when they pick up the phone, you have to start closing down units.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_10345514\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 488px\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2014/10/image-1.jpeg\">\u003cimg class=\" wp-image-10345514\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2014/10/image-1.jpeg\" alt=\"Residents of San Jose's Evergreen neighborhood gather at city hall to demand action to reduce crime.

San Jose voters in 2012 approved reforms that changed disability benefits and asked city employees to contribute more to their pensions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some former San Jose police officers say it’s one reason they left the force. Ten of them are now with the Hayward Police Department. George Beattie, who once headed the Police Officers Association in San Jose, said in Hayward he gets better pay and benefits.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Every officer, including those who came before and after me, says they came for the same reason -- financial security,” said Beattie, now Hayward PD’s personnel and training administrator.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Actually, the city lost a small number of officers after pension reform compared with what happened after the recession.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"pullquote alignright\">'It’s really going to change the area if it becomes unsafe.

And each is trying to convince voters he’s the one who can make the city safer.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Violent crime was higher when I came into office in 2007 -- and Dave Cortese was vice mayor -- than it was last year,” Liccardo said at the Santa Clara County Bench/Bar debate last month.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Cortese shot back: “I think it lacks credibility to say people feel safe in their neighborhood, that we are safer than we were six, seven or eight years ago.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Voters like Brian Tran just want officers to show up when they have a problem. And that’s why he was outside the San Jose City Council chambers last week with roughly 100 homeowners from the city’s Evergreen neighborhood.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Tran asked how many people had been crime victims, and several dozen raised their hands. Last month, there were 95 reported burglaries in Evergreen. Tran’s house was ransacked in August.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I’ve lived in the United States for 35 years -- first time I’m speaking out,\" Tran said. “What’s being done to the people in Evergreen, being done to San Jose, is not fair.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Tran and other residents want more than rhetoric from the next mayor. They want neighborhood command centers, more police and more patrols -- whether it’s in middle-class Evergreen or affluent Willow Glen.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Lissa Minkin of Willow Glen says the quality of life in her neighborhood is deteriorating.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“And we know there are issues with San Jose as a whole in terms of not having enough police coverage,” Minkin said. “So I really want to see that change.

For Cortese, that meant bringing up public safety concerns; for Liccardo, it meant diving into pension reform and the city's fiscal health.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Backed by incumbent Mayor Chuck Reed, the architect of \u003ca href=\"http://ballotpedia.org/San_Jose_Pension_Reform,_Measure_B_(June_2012)\" target=\"_blank\">Measure B, the city's pension reform charter amendmen\u003c/a>t, Liccardo argued that San Jose needs to stick with its pension plan to control skyrocketing pension costs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I believe we cannot continue to spend our children’s money. We have a $3 billion unfunded liability with a pension retirement debt,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He attacked Cortese for saying that San Jose’s police officers are under-pensioned and underpaid while failing to say how he would pay them more money. Liccardo plans to use more civilians in the Police Department.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Cortese, who is supported by police and the unions, argued that fearful San Jose voters from Willow Glen to East San Jose are demanding more “cops with a badge and gun showing up at their door” when there are crime problems and their safety is at risk. He argues the city's aggressive pension reform measure has driven officers from the Police Department.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The issue of pension reform is a deflection, a red herring to take us off the real issue of public safety and the loss of 400 police officers,” Cortese said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Liccardo shot back that more than 300 officers left the Police Department before pension reform.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The debate, sponsored by the Silicon Valley Leadership Group and eBay and hosted by the online commerce giant, was moderated by Joshua Johnson of KQED. The panel included KQED Silicon Valley reporter Rachael Myrow, George Sampson of KLIV radio, Scott Herhold of the San Jose Mercury News and Scott Budman of NBC Bay Area.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Their questions also focused on affordable housing throughout San Jose and in the downtown area. Liccardo wants to impose an impact fee on developers as a source of funding for affordable housing. Cortese argued that a countywide revenue solution is needed, along with the creation of tax incentives for developers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Affordable, high-rise housing also played into the question of how to lure tech startups and a younger workforce to San Jose instead of seeing them go to the Peninsula or San Francisco.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Liccardo said San Jose needs to create a vibrant, hip, urban option in downtown San Jose to keep 20-something workers from heading north with tech startups chasing them. He called it critical to San Jose’s future.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Cortese argued that real job numbers tell the story. He noted that in August, 23,000 jobs were created in the South Bay, far more than in competing areas. The urban atmosphere in downtown San Jose, he said, is wonderful and vibrant.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Several more debates are expected before the November election.\u003c/p>\n\n",

We have a $3 billion unfunded liability with a pension retirement debt,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He attacked Cortese for saying that San Jose’s police officers are under-pensioned and underpaid while failing to say how he would pay them more money. Liccardo plans to use more civilians in the Police Department.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Cortese, who is supported by police and the unions, argued that fearful San Jose voters from Willow Glen to East San Jose are demanding more “cops with a badge and gun showing up at their door” when there are crime problems and their safety is at risk. He argues the city's aggressive pension reform measure has driven officers from the Police Department.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The issue of pension reform is a deflection, a red herring to take us off the real issue of public safety and the loss of 400 police officers,” Cortese said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Liccardo shot back that more than 300 officers left the Police Department before pension reform.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The debate, sponsored by the Silicon Valley Leadership Group and eBay and hosted by the online commerce giant, was moderated by Joshua Johnson of KQED. The panel included KQED Silicon Valley reporter Rachael Myrow, George Sampson of KLIV radio, Scott Herhold of the San Jose Mercury News and Scott Budman of NBC Bay Area.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Their questions also focused on affordable housing throughout San Jose and in the downtown area. Liccardo wants to impose an impact fee on developers as a source of funding for affordable housing. Cortese argued that a countywide revenue solution is needed, along with the creation of tax incentives for developers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Affordable, high-rise housing also played into the question of how to lure tech startups and a younger workforce to San Jose instead of seeing them go to the Peninsula or San Francisco.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Liccardo said San Jose needs to create a vibrant, hip, urban option in downtown San Jose to keep 20-something workers from heading north with tech startups chasing them. He called it critical to San Jose’s future.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Cortese argued that real job numbers tell the story. He noted that in August, 23,000 jobs were created in the South Bay, far more than in competing areas. The urban atmosphere in downtown San Jose, he said, is wonderful and vibrant.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Several more debates are expected before the November election.\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",
