The Roxie buys its own building

The Roxie Theater at 16th and Valencia in San Francisco was founded in 1912, and now owns its own building. This is such great news for the non-profit that runs the theater, not to mention the whole damn city. (I’m also so happy to see Cameo Wood’s name on the list of The Roxie’s board members; we worked together ages ago at Six Apart and she’s gone on to produce more than two dozen films, direct five, and win an Emmy.)
