It is recommended that this oral history be cited as follows: Tom Bane, Oral History Interview, Conducted 1994 and 1995 by Steven L. Isoardi, UCLA Oral History Program, for the California State Archives State Government Oral History Program. PREFACE On September 25, 1985, Governor George Deukmejian signed into law A.B. 2104 (Chapter 965 of the Statutes of 1985). This legislation established, under the administration of the California State Archives, a State Government Oral History Program "to provide through the use of oral history a continuing documentation of state policy development as reflected in California's legislative and executive history." The following interview is one of a series of oral histories undertaken for inclusion in the state program. These interviews offer insights into the actual workings of both the legislative and executive processes and policy mechanisms. They also offer an increased understanding of the men and women who create legislation and implement state policy. Further, they provide an overview of issue development in California state government and of how both the legislative and executive branches of government deal with issues and problems facing the state. Interviewees are chosen primarily on the basis of their contributions to and influence on the policy process of the state of California. They include members of the legislative and executive branches of the state government as well as legislative staff, advocates, members of the media, and other people who played significant roles in specific issue areas of major and continuing importance to California. By authorizing the California State Archives to work cooperatively with oral history units at California colleges and universities to conduct interviews, this program is structured to take advantage of the resources and expertise in oral history available through California's several institutionally based programs. Participating as cooperating institutions in the State Government Oral History Program are: Oral History Program History Department California State University, Fullerton Oral History Program Center for California Studies California State University, Sacramento Oral History Program Claremont Graduate School Regional Oral History Office The Bancroft Library University of California, Berkeley Oral History Program University of California, Los Angeles The establishment of the California State Archives State Government Oral History Program marks one of the most significant commitments made by any state toward the preservation and documentation of its governmental his- tory. It supplements the often fragmentary historical written record by adding an organized primary source, enriching the historical information available on given topics and allowing for more thorough historical analysis. As such, the program, through the preservation and publication of interviews such as the one which follows, will be of lasting value to current and future generations of scholars, citizens, and leaders.

SUMMER "#$% MAGAZINE !e Community Issue BUILDINGPEOPLE USC Dornsife’s impact begins in Los Angeles and stretches around the globe. 2 CONTRIBUTOR ARIEH WARSHEL Nobel Laureate and Distinguished Professor of Chemistry During a white-tie ceremony in Stockholm, King Carl XVI Gustaf of Sweden presented USC Dornsife’s Arieh Warshel and two colleagues with the 2013 Nobel Prize in Chemistry. The Royal Swedish Acad- emy of Sciences awarded the prize to Warshel, Distinguished Professor of Chemistry and fellow of the National Academy of Sciences, along with Michael Levitt of Stanford University and Martin Karplus of the Université de Strasbourg in France and Harvard University, for the development of multiscale models for complex chemi- cal systems. Warshel, Karplus and Levitt developed methods to model chemical reac- tions using computer simu- lations — a cornerstone of modern chemistry. With the Swedish royal family on the right side of the stage at the Stockholm Concert Hall and the newly minted Nobel laureates on the left, Carl-Henrik Heldin, chairman of the board of di- rectors of the Nobel Founda- tion, illuminated the history of the awards and the laure- ates’ visionary work. Each laureate received a medal, a diploma and a document confirming the Nobel Prize amount. Warshel became the fourth Nobel laureate at USC, joining George Olah and Daniel McFadden, both of USC Dornsife, and Mur- ray Gell-Mann of the Keck School of Medicine of USC.

Fraser is bringing roughly two dozen people with him from Caltech, three or four of whom will take lab leadership positions at USC. The Chronicle of Higher Education ran a second story.

Reiff, Chair “Searching for a Stake: The Scope of Jewish Politics in Los Angeles from Watts to Rodney King, 1965-1992” traces the intensification of local Jewish political activity as well as the factors that led to Jewish disengagement from local political and civic affairs. It does so by considering Jewish politics within the context of metropolitan social structures, localized ethno-racial hierarchies, and spatial scales. An insidious sense of defeat following concerted efforts to mesh together distinct ethnic concerns with broader civic ones, coupled with a heightened interest in seemingly remote issues, pulled Jews away from the local sphere. Herein lies one of the great ironies of late twentieth century Jewish political life in Los Angeles and beyond: as the American Jewish community enhanced their political clout on the national and international level, they sensed little to gain by participating in local politics.
