Info | A Los Angeles native, Bob Tur has played an important and positive role in keeping our City streets safe. From his first job as a Medic working some of Los Angeles's
toughest streets to State of California Licensed Investigator, specializing in City Fraud, Bob Tur knows Los Angeles like no other mayoral candidate.
Spent 23 years covering the Los Angeles Police and Fire beat for some of L.A.'s largest news organizations, including legendary KNX Newsradio, KCBS Television News, KFWB 980,
and the Associated Press and United Press International. Winner of 3 Emmy Awards, The Edward R. Murrow Award, George Foster Peabody Medal, Associated Press National
breaking News Award, and several Press Club Golden Mikes, Bob Tur has made a career of being impartial, truthful, and honest.
An Aviation expert with more than 9,000 hours piloting jet powered helicopters and fixed wing, Bob Tur can move quickly to help reduce airport noise at LAX, and Van Nuys
airports. In fact, Bob Tur has developed a plan that will reduce Van Nuys airport overflights by more than 14,000 helicopter takeoff/landings annually. Welcome relief for home -
owner groups, without interfering with Van Nuys FBOs.
Bob Tur will help save our Los Angeles Police Department by implementing the compressed work schedule, work with the Police Protective League and City Council to find
new leadership, guiding the LAPD into the new millennium. Restore the successful Senior Lead Officer Program and support the program with the full force and effect of the
Office of Mayor.
Bob Tur understands what it's like to be a victim of crime, having been stabbed by a gang member after having appeared as the District Attorney's chief witness in the trial
of the four men that nearly killed trucker Reginald O. Denny at Florence and Normandie, the flashpoint of the 1992 Los Angeles Riots. In addition, Bob Tur knows the toll that
gang members have taken, having visited more than 1,000 murder scenes. Bob Tur will give our Police Officers everything they need to make our neighborhoods safe.
Married 23 years to Marika Gerrard-Tur. They have two children, Katharine 17 and James 15.
