Say hello to Bisnow's regional director for San Francisco and the Silicon Valley. Lance (full name: Lancelot Longstreet Minor IV) helps put together and emcee our events, and handles sales and sponsorships. He also comes from an illustrious Southern family. In fact, our country might look quite different today if a certain Robert E. Lee had heeded the premonition of one of Lance's ancestors. (Baffled? Just Google Gen. James Longstreet, Pickett's Charge, and Gettysburg.) A Memphis native who graduated from Ole Miss, Lance was working up on the Hill in DC when he decided he would rather work in the private sector. What he loves about his job:"The company values getting things done effectively, rather than getting things done traditionally." Now he lives among the Yanks in North Beach and works out of 3 Embarcadero Center. He's also captain of the University Club's squash team.
