On June 9th, twenty one Italian American organizations came together to celebrate my four years as Italy's Consul General in San Francisco. This heartwarming event, held at the San Francisco Italian Athletic Association, was made possible by Alessandro Baccari, San Francisco's chief North Beach historian, who along with other passionate Italian Americans had the vision and follow-through to make the night unforgettable.
