PRESENTS
Underwater Photographer Brian Skerry in
OCEAN SOUL
Monday, March 26, 2012 | 7pm | Albert Theatre
National Geographic Live returns to Chicago this March for one
unforgettable night at Goodman Theatre! Voyage across the
oceans with one of our most seasoned photographers. Brian
Skerry dives eight months of the year, often in extreme conditions
beneath Arctic ice or in predator-infested waters, and has
even lived at the bottom of the sea to get close to his subjects.
Skerry has spent more than 10,000 hours under water creating
portraits of creatures so intimate they appear to have been shot
in a studio. The evening will include riveting stories of Skerry’s
encounters with whales, sharks, and giant squid and feature
stunning, high-definition images from his new book, Ocean
Soul. Special ticket pricing for Goodman Theatre Subscribers
at GoodmanTheatre.org/natgeo.

A Legacy of Great Theater
In November 2011, the Goodman lost a
cherished member of our theater family,
Bettie Dwinell. A Subscriber and donor,
Bettie’s long-standing commitment to the
Goodman spanned more than 60 years.
Bettie’s passion for theater could be traced
back to her childhood in Mt. Morris,
Illinois. “Living in a remote area, listening
to theater and other shows on the radio
was all we had to do,” she once told the Goodman’s Director
of Development Dorlisa Martin. Years later, she began attending
shows in Chicago and even met her late husband while he
was a lighting design student at the original Goodman School of
Theatre. Over the years, she became involved with many other
Chicago cultural organizations, including the Field Museum, the
Art Institute, the Lyric Opera and the Saints.
Bettie’s enduring love of the arts inspired her to join the
Spotlight Society, an association of theater enthusiasts who
have remembered the Goodman in their estate plans. Thanks
to Bettie, future generations of Chicagoans will experience the
outstanding productions and community educational programs
offered by the Goodman.
To learn more about Spotlight Society membership or make
a planned gift to Goodman Theatre, please contact Jenny
