Congratulations to Claremont resident Bob Messinger, who will be honored tomorrow night with a Lifetime Achievement Award from the Press Photographers Association of Greater Los Angeles. Messinger had a long career in newspapers around Southern California, covering everything from the Charles Manson trial, East Los Angeles Riots, parades, earthquakes and much more.
He was also the lead author of the Media Guidebook, which both government and media outlets use to understand the rights of journalist in the field. The award ceremony takes place tomorrow night at the Glendale Moose Club. See tomorrow's paper for a full story and along with some of his best photos.
Saturday will be a busy day in Claremont too. There will be an Easter Egg Hunt, sorry, Spring Egg Hunt in the morning at Memorial Park, the International Festival in the afternoon at the Colleges, the Taste of Claremont at Taylor Hall in the evening and a wildflower show all weekend at the Botanic Gardens.
Correction: The Taste of Claremont is next Saturday, April 18 at Taylor Hall.
