Last week, Bravo and one of his Angeleno protégés, Valley State College Historian Julian Nava, 39, were making the first major effort to alter that situation. Running with Bravo's backing for the nonpartisan school board, Nava-the son of an indigent harp maker and winner of a Bravo scholarship loan to finish Harvard-was coursing the city in his green Volkswagen in a catalytic campaign against Incumbent Charles Reed Smoot...
