“indomitable woman” critical to
Oregon’s legacy as a liberal leader.
Multnomah County Commis-

Nazis by crossing over the Pyre-

“She was truly pioneering lead-

medical center, located at 2801 N.
Gantenbein Ave.
Congressman Earl Blumenauer
said he will miss Katz’ construc-

ship.
“Vera was bold, shrewd, deter-
mined smart and an amazing role
model. Our city would not be what
it is without her,”
During her tenure as mayor,
Katz was known for overseeing
the development of several Port-
land landmarks, including devel-
opment of the Pearl district, the
Portland Streetcar, the Eastbank
Esplanade, and the Moda Center.
She is survived by her son Jess,
a Los Angeles journalist, and her
former husband, Mel Katz.
