Spencer Burton Runs For Saltzman's Seat

Stonemason Spencer Burton is like a cross between Jack Kerouac and Don Draper. This struck me about ten minutes into our interview this morning at the Black Sheep Bakery on NW 19th, and I had to blurt it out. "You're a cross between Don Draper and Jack Kerouac," I said. "Who's Don Draper?" he asked. "Okay, let me re-phrase that as a question," I said. And so begins our...
