I was drawn to California's Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta because most of what I’ve been reading and
hearing over the years focused just on the water diversion and on the
endangered species caught up in that system. About a year ago, I
started driving through the Delta and became really curious about who
lives there, their history and culture, and what they do for work and
for fun. KALW's Crosscurrents let me scratch that itch a bit by doing a 4-part series about the people of the Delta and the work that drives them.
