It's not just because she's the president of La Jolla Parks & Beaches (LJP&B) that Ann Dynes has a unique perspective on La Jolla's parks and beaches. From the balcony of the condo she shares with her husband (former University of California president and UC San Diego chancellor Bob Dynes), she overlooks the park and the beach at Whale View Point. Dynes also helped found the San Diego Parks Foundation; worked with La Jolla Conservancy; and with the LJP&B board, advises the City Parks & Rec Department on improvements needed for La Jolla's parks and beaches.
