Interview with Helena Arahuete – XX LA Episode 029

Helena Arahuete started working for John Lautner in 1971 and rose to the role of Chief Architect in his office.  She continues today as Principal of Lautner Associates , most recently completing the restoration of the Bob and Dolores Hope House in Palm Springs.  This is a very unique two-part episode featuring conversations with Helena Arahuete.  I first met Helena at Palm Springs Modernism Week in February.  Part 1 is an edited recording of interviews she did with eighth graders Abrianna Pingleton, Shelomith Hoy, Tyler Bloomer, Santiago Garza, and Julia Fidel from Ms. Patton’s class at the St. Theresa Catholic School . Part 2 is my follow up with Helena after we returned home to Los Angeles.
