Finding his inner Sherlock Holmes
Millett has enjoyed writing about Minnesota buildings and their history, as evident through his nonfiction books including “Lost Twin Cities” and “Twin Cities Then and Now.”
Even in fiction, he likes to put a human face to buildings, that is, to weave the history of buildings into stories and people.
Reporting for the Pioneer Press from ‘72 until ‘84, he took advantage of an opportunity to study architecture at the University of Michigan. Upon returning to St. Paul in 1985, he became the paper’s first architectural critic until he retired in 2002.
Allotment Stories: Daniel Heath Justice and Jean M. O'Brien.
Saving Animals: Elan Abrell and Kathryn (Katie) Gillespie on sanctuary, care, ethics.
