John V. Robinson

Former ironworker John V. Robinson is the author of Crockett (Arcadia Publishing, 2004) and Spanning the Strait: Building the Alfred Zampa Memorial Bridge (Carquinez Press, 2004). Here, Robinson uses vintage and contemporary images to document Al Zampa's contribution to the historic bridges of the Bay Area. Zampa is gone now, but his workmanship touches millions every day.
