Girl Keeping Abreast
Editor -- "But can she type?" It's understandable that Matier & Ross would question whether a beautiful woman could actually be competent to hold a government job. It's not often that political writers can justify running modeling publicity photos across the top of their columns, especially when the photos lack any connection to a political story.
Matier & Ross shouldn't undercut their coup by more than a mere mention that their subject, Willie Brown's secretary Esther Hwang , is a graduate of UC Berkeley. That Hwang's web site photos are unrelated to her City Hall job also warrants only a passing reference. Thank goodness these columnists are keeping us abreast, literally, of what is "the talk of City Hall this week."
