Dave Streich
is the exception that proves the rule. In 1997, when the City was losing
artists, musicians, and other creative types to rent spikes related to
the dot com influx, Dave moved here from New York to experience his own
slice of life in San Francisco. The self-styled artist, photographer, and
raconteur makes his home in the inner Sunset, one of the City's most underrated neighborhoods. Dave, seen here near the original Playland carousel
at Moscone Center's Zeum, once appeared on MTV's "Remote Control" where he
correctly answered the question, "Who appeared on Laugh-In uttering the
immortal phrase 'Sock it to me'?" His answer, Richard Nixon, earned him
15 points. Twelve years later the same question was worth $1 million
on "Who Wants to be a Millionaire." Is Dave bitter? No. Just don't ask
him about auditions for "Weakest Link."
