Mill Valley Film Festival: Marin’s denim maestro takes center stage in new short film (opens the original)
Read excerpt
When Marin native Nicolas Collins first walked into San Rafael’s Jeans to a T, he felt like he’d entered another world. “It’s this very unassuming place, with a basic sign on a blue awning. You go inside and then all of a sudden you’re transported into this Western-style saloon, where it’s floor-to-ceiling jeans and all sorts of Levi’s, Wrangler and Lee advertisements throughout the years.

The comedians were hilarious, but the venue was empty. “Afterward, the guy who was running it, Frank Kidder, came right over, and I told him it’s probably the first time anyone has ever attended in a suit and that this is a great show, but where are the customers?” Fox said.

Political activist to speak at Marin events (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Gary Lucks knows a thing or two about bringing people together. It has driven the environmental lawyer, policy adviser and activist’s work over the years, from founding the Progressive Action East Bay, which raised money for the Democrats’ efforts to flip Congress in 2006, to starting the Resistance Action East Bay Indivisible Group, which dedicated their efforts toward raising funds and support for Democrats in swing districts in 2020. Lucks shares what he’s learned from his decades of experien
