Carville, Matalin to Speak at L.A. Real Estate Summit

This year’s Real Estate Summit will feature a couple of political poles--James Carville and Mary Matalin. The husband and wife team, who stand on opposite ends of the political spectrum and served as presidential campaign advisors, will deliver the luncheon keynote address.

The third annual commercial real estate conference will run from 7 a.m. to 4 p.m. Dec. 3 at the Westin Bonaventure Hotel in downtown Los Angeles.

Among the presenters is John Cushman III, president of Cushman Realty Corp. He will lead the morning session, which will feature Nelson Rising, president and chief executive of Catellus Development Corp.; Casey Wold, executive vice president of TrizecHahn Properties Inc.; and Michael Fascitelli, president of Vornado Realty Trust.

Following the he-said, she-said lunchtime address, the “Lend Lease Emerging Trends in Real Estate” report will be presented. After 4 p.m., participants may attend the 27th annual “Chris-Mix” and Summit Showcase featuring 120 exhibitor booths.

The event is sponsored by the Building Owners and Managers Assn. of Greater Los Angeles. For information, call (213) 629-2662.
