Frank Lopez was born in Guatemala in 1972. When he was eight years old, his family fled, escaping  violence brought on by the Civil War. Frank's father had been in the US for several years before he arranged to bring Frank, his mother and his seven siblings north. Frank recalls making the long trip from Guatemala, through Mexico, finally landing in Los Angeles. As it happens, Frank is also the building manager of our neighborhood bureau (interview by Caitlin Esch). #YorkandFig #MarketplaceAPM
