Mt. Diablo Beacon

This is a tale that is more than the restoration of a 1928 beacon, shut down on December 7, 1941 for fear it would allow enemy aircraft to target the San Francisco Bay area. It is a story of tragedy and great loss overcome by resilience and remembrance…of volunteers and dark nights and foul weather…of love and sacrifice for country. This is the story of the Mount Diablo Beacon.

Cyndy Green has been intrigued by news since she got a toy printing press as a six year old. She switched to visual story telling at the age of 12 with her first still camera and moved to broadcasting after an internship in 1974. After 28 years in broadcast news and another 8 teaching broadcasting, she still can’t live without a camera in hand and an editing computer nearby, so in retirement she continues creating visual stories.
