The first woman has been nominated to lead the Los Angeles Fire Department in its 136-year history, the mayor said Tuesday.
Crowley, who is the administrative operations chief deputy and fire marshal, said she would be committed as fire chief to always keep the department “operational ready.” “Lacking cell service, they couldn’t call for backup for equipment. They just had their firefighting gear, shovels, buckets of pool water and garden hoses,” he said.
“She’s someone who identifies a problem, identifies a solution and executes a plan,” Martinez said at the conference. “Today’s announcement is not just important for women, but for all of us. This is incredibly special because she deserves it.”
