San Francisco designer Suzanne Tucker has been a force in the design world virtually since she started as “secretary” to iconic designer Michael Taylor, who is credited with creating the California Look. In this intimate look at her career, she talks about her transition to becoming Taylor’s protégé and successor, how she managed to thrive in San Francisco’s male-dominated design scene of the 1980s, the launch of her fabric line, why she considers antiques and vintage pieces to be crucial, how clients have changed over the years, and why learning what your clients don’t like can often be your most effective tool.
