Audio Profile: Mr. Ulysses J. Montgomery
Mr. Montgomery was one of the first seniors interview by the Honors Media Production group that partnered with the Western Addition Senior Center.
He is a man who has seen so much change first hand in the Fillmore and Western Addition, as he was one of the main civil engineers who worked against redevelopment for the African-American community. He was one of the first Black engineers to be licensed in the state of California. Mr. Montgomery lives by the words “by and for the people,” as every thing he has done in his career as an engineer and building consultant has directly benefited the communities he has helped.
