Former Anaheim Mayor Reflects on Overcoming Adversity, Building Community, and the Power of Persistence
Anaheim, CA - May 1, 2025 - In a newly released exclusive interview, Harry Sidhu-engineer, entrepreneur, and former Mayor of Anaheim-offers a rare glimpse into the personal and professional journey that brought him from sweeping floors to leading one of California's most dynamic cities.
Titled "Coffee with Harry Sidhu: How a Janitor Became Mayor," the feature captures the heart of Sidhu's story through a conversational format that blends biography with honest reflection. From his early days as a new immigrant with just six dollars to his name, to overseeing relief efforts during the COVID-19 pandemic, Sidhu's narrative is one of grit, gratitude, and unwavering commitment to public service.
"When I came to America, I had very little-but I had big dreams," Sidhu shares in the interview. "I worked nights as a janitor and studied during the day. It wasn't easy, but I believed in the promise of this country."
After earning a mechanical engineering degree from Drexel University, Sidhu worked for top-tier companies including Amtrak and General Dynamics. Yet his entrepreneurial spirit led him and his wife, Gin, to build a thriving business-eventually owning 28 restaurants across Southern California. His business background would later inform his approach to governance and community outreach.
Sidhu entered public service in the early 2000s, winning a seat on the Anaheim City Council in 2004 after an initial defeat two years earlier. He served two terms before being elected Mayor in 2018. His term was marked by bold action on homelessness, expanded support for underserved entrepreneurs, and calm, steady leadership during the global health crisis.
"In leadership, there's no room for ego," Sidhu says. "You have to listen, act with compassion, and always remember where you came from."
The interview takes a personal turn as Sidhu reflects on the importance of dignity in public policy, especially when addressing homelessness and small business recovery. It also touches on his lifelong belief in education, hard work, and never giving up.
Now retired, Sidhu continues to support the city and people he spent years serving. His story, told with humility and clarity, is a reminder that perseverance and service can take you further than you ever imagined.
