Mayor of my favorite city:
Edwin Mah Lee (李孟賢; May 5, 1952 – December 12, 2017) was an American politician and attorney who served as the 43rd mayor of San Francisco, and was the first Asian American to hold the office. He was city administrator before being appointed mayor.[1]
On January 11, 2011, Lee was appointed by the Board of Supervisors to serve out the remaining term of former Mayor Gavin Newsom after Newsom resigned to take office as Lieutenant Governor of California. On November 8, 2011, Lee won the election to serve a full term as mayor. He was re-elected in 2015.
