From the<br />
Artistic Director<br />
Our 2010/2011 Season was ambitious, featuring<br />
five premieres of new works as well as two<br />
new adaptations of classics. Collectively, these<br />
productions provided stunning proof of the artistic<br />
breadth and variety for which the <strong>Goodman</strong> is<br />
noted, along with the quality and diversity that our<br />
state-of-the-art facility has helped us achieve over<br />
the past decade. I was particularly excited to<br />
welcome back three of my favorite collaborators—<br />
Manilow Resident Director Mary Zimmerman,<br />
Artistic Associate Regina Taylor and MacArthur<br />
“Genius” Grant–winning playwright Sarah Ruhl—<br />
and pleased to welcome playwright Thomas<br />
Bradshaw to the <strong>Goodman</strong> for the first time.<br />
The Albert <strong>Theatre</strong> season opened with Mary<br />
Zimmerman’s production of Candide, featuring<br />
Leonard Bernstein’s award-winning musical score.<br />
Mary’s unique artistry and an outstanding cast<br />
made this funny, insightful and richly theatrical<br />
work one of the major successes of the Chicago<br />
theater season, which was repeated with the<br />
production’s subsequent run at the Shakespeare<br />
<strong>Theatre</strong> Company in Washington, DC. Following<br />
Candide was our 33rd annual production of A<br />
Christmas Carol, expertly directed for the fifth year<br />
by William Brown.<br />
In mid-January we presented Regina Taylor’s<br />
newest work, The Trinity River Plays (co-produced<br />
with Dallas Theater Center), an emotionally<br />
riveting study of love, loss and remembrance that<br />
won an Edgerton Foundation New American<br />
Plays Award in 2010. Poetic and beautifully acted<br />
by an ensemble headed by the amazing Karen<br />
Aldridge, this was Regina’s most personal work to<br />
date and further established her as one of our<br />
premier playwrights.<br />
Next up in the Albert was God of Carnage, a<br />
theatrical rarity as a comedy that translates easily<br />
to a variety of cultures and countries. Yasmina<br />
Reza’s remarkable play is a searingly comic<br />
dissection of what is perhaps the most daunting<br />
activity on earth: parenting. The <strong>Goodman</strong><br />
production, one of the most popular in our<br />
history, was brought to hilarious life by a skillful<br />
quartet of performers under the adept direction<br />
of Rick Snyder, on loan from his post<br />
as an ensemble member at Steppenwolf<br />
<strong>Theatre</strong> Company.<br />
In April we staged the world premiere of the<br />
<strong>Goodman</strong>-commissioned play Stage Kiss, Sarah<br />
Ruhl’s homage to the theater, romantic relationships<br />
and the often tenuous grasp that we all<br />
have on our own identities. Written with her<br />
trademark blend of humor, wisdom and humanity,<br />
Stage Kiss reaffirmed Sarah’s position as one<br />
of the singularly gifted voices of contemporary<br />
American theater.<br />
We ended the Albert season with the world<br />
premiere of David Henry Hwang’s Chinglish,<br />
directed by Leigh Silverman and produced in<br />
association with The Public Theater. Few plays<br />
in recent years have delighted our audiences<br />
(and me) as much as this hilariously perceptive<br />
look at the evolution of cultural identity on both<br />
a national and a personal level, and few plays<br />
are, I believe, as relevant to the world in which<br />
we now live.<br />
The Owen <strong>Theatre</strong> season opened with my spare,<br />
intimate interpretation of Anton Chekhov’s The<br />
Seagull, whose unforgettable characters reveal the<br />
passion and pathos of life. This new adaptation<br />
was brought to life by an ensemble of Chicago’s<br />
finest actors. Next was the world premiere of Mary,<br />
a <strong>Goodman</strong>-commissioned play by Prince Prize–<br />
and Guggenheim Fellowship–winning playwright<br />
Thomas Bradshaw in his Chicago debut. Inspired<br />
by a true story, Mary uses outrageous social satire<br />
to examine the pervasive nature of racism and<br />
homophobia in contemporary America. Deftly<br />
staged by May Adrales, the play inspired lively<br />
audience discussion throughout its run. Closing<br />
the Owen season was Tanya Saracho’s gripping<br />
El Nogalar (produced in collaboration with Teatro<br />
Vista), a play informed by Chekhov’s The Cherry<br />
Orchard but grounded in the violence that currently<br />
dominates the US/Mexico border.<br />
The 2010/2011 Season also brought transitions<br />
in our Artistic Collective, as Frank Galati departed<br />
after a remarkable 24-year tenure, and playwright<br />
Rebecca Gilman, a longtime <strong>Goodman</strong><br />
collaborator whose <strong>Goodman</strong> premieres include<br />
Spinning into Butter, Boy Gets Girl and A True<br />
History of the Johnstown Flood, joined the<br />
group. This distinguished body of resident artists<br />
also includes Associate Producer Steve Scott,<br />
Resident Artistic Associate Henry Godinez,<br />
Resident Director Chuck Smith, Manilow Resident<br />
Director Mary Zimmerman and Artistic Associates<br />
Brian Dennehy and Regina Taylor.<br />
Much of the success of the <strong>Goodman</strong> depends<br />
on the craftspeople and administrative staff who<br />
work behind the scenes to create a home away<br />
from home that allows resident and visiting artists<br />
to flourish and turn out their best work. Many<br />
thanks to my business partner, Roche Schulfer,<br />
who supports the artistic vision of the theater<br />
while working tirelessly with our governing boards,<br />
and to our General Manager Peter Calibraro,<br />
whose leadership and expertise secures its<br />
financial future.<br />
Our season of premieres was a satisfying way to<br />
both celebrate our 10th anniversary on Dearborn<br />
Street and explore — through myriad dramatic<br />
styles and voices —the power of live theater to<br />
entertain, provoke, reassure and enlighten. As<br />
always, I thank you for your support and patronage,<br />
and I look forward to seeing you next season.<br />

From the<br />
Executive Director<br />
The 2010/2011 Season marked the <strong>Goodman</strong>’s<br />
10th anniversary in our new home on Dearborn<br />
Street. Our artists, boards and staff worked<br />
exceedingly hard to make it our most exciting<br />
season to date.<br />
In the 2010/2011 Season, the <strong>Goodman</strong>:<br />
◆ Produced five world premieres, four by<br />
artists of color, and two new adaptations<br />
of classic works;<br />
◆ For the December 31, 2010 production of<br />
A Christmas Carol, made every seat in the<br />
house available to the USO, Children’s Memorial<br />
Hospital, Ronald McDonald House Charities<br />
and other charitable organizations, inviting<br />
troops and their families as well as chronically<br />
ill children to take part in one of Chicago’s most<br />
cherished holiday events. Illinois Governor<br />
Pat Quinn stopped by to greet the audience;<br />
◆ Produced the world premiere of Chinglish and<br />
celebrated its successful move to Broadway;<br />
◆ Built on our 30+ year commitment to diversity<br />
by hosting a series of community events<br />
related to productions on our stages written<br />
and/or directed by women and artists of color;<br />
◆ Led a group of Chicago arts and educational<br />
institutions to bring the Belarus Free <strong>Theatre</strong><br />
and their critically acclaimed production of<br />
Being Harold Pinter to Chicago;<br />
◆ Started GeNarrations, a new six-week<br />
writing workshop for senior citizens drawing<br />
on themes raised by the <strong>Goodman</strong>’s<br />
mainstage productions;<br />
◆ In November 2010, named former<br />
Mayor Richard Daley and Mrs. Maggie Daley<br />
Honorary Life Trustees at the re-dedication<br />
of the <strong>Goodman</strong> <strong>Theatre</strong> Complex and<br />
◆ Announced that nearly $10 million has<br />
been raised toward the theater’s Endowing<br />
Excellence Campaign.<br />
These are only some of the highlights from an<br />
exciting season. During Patricia Cox’s final year<br />
as Chairman of the Board of Trustees, we<br />
continued to advance our mission to make the<br />
<strong>Goodman</strong> the premier cultural organization in<br />
Chicago and to provide a nurturing environment<br />
for artists and theater professionals. With<br />
Patricia’s help, the <strong>Goodman</strong>’s 10th Anniversary<br />
Celebration generated a groundswell of support<br />
from longstanding donors and a record number of<br />
new supporters. Her leadership was inspirational<br />
and her focus admirable.<br />
The season’s success is also due in large part<br />
to the unending dedication and generosity of our<br />
Board of Trustees and Women’s Board, as well as<br />
the hard work and talent of the <strong>Goodman</strong>’s senior<br />
staff: General Manager Peter Calibraro, Associate<br />
Producer Steve Scott, Director of Development<br />
Dorlisa Martin, Director of Education and<br />
Community Engagement Willa Taylor, Director of<br />
Marketing and Public Relations Lori Kleinerman,<br />
Production Manager Scott Conn and Publicity<br />
Director Denise Schneider. I also must thank<br />
Bob Falls and all of our Artistic Associates for<br />
their inspiring and visionary leadership.<br />
We could not do what we do without the<br />
tremendous support of our audiences, donors<br />
and volunteers. Thank you. We hope you enjoyed<br />
the season as much as we did and we look forward<br />
to seeing you next year.<br />

From the<br />
Chairman<br />
Because of you, our “Decade on Dearborn”<br />
season was a smash!<br />
As Chairman of <strong>Goodman</strong> <strong>Theatre</strong>, I am proud<br />
to share our Annual Report from the 2010/2011<br />
Season—our 10th year on Dearborn Street, and<br />
85th season overall— including the wonderful<br />
productions, artists and audiences who contributed<br />
to its success. To mark the occasion, Artistic<br />
Director Robert Falls and Executive Director<br />
Roche Schulfer delivered a signature nine-play<br />
line-up of a size and scope possible only at<br />
the <strong>Goodman</strong>.<br />
We launched the celebratory season in the<br />
“best of all possible” ways, with a bold new<br />
adaptation of Leonard Bernstein’s Candide from<br />
Tony Award winner and Manilow Resident<br />
Director Mary Zimmerman. Following its criticallyacclaimed<br />
extended run at the <strong>Goodman</strong>,<br />
Candide proceeded to delight audiences at<br />
Washington, DC’s Shakespeare <strong>Theatre</strong> Company,<br />
claiming numerous Jeff and Helen Hayes awards<br />
for excellence. Our Season Opening Celebration<br />
included a festive pre-show dinner at the Modern<br />
Wing of the Art Institute—the original site of<br />
<strong>Goodman</strong> <strong>Theatre</strong>—and a special tribute to<br />
Founding Chairman Stanley Freehling and<br />
Honorary President Lewis Manilow. Without<br />
their contributions, the <strong>Goodman</strong> would not<br />
be where it is today.<br />
Robert Falls’ spellbinding interpretation of<br />
The Seagull opened next, followed by our<br />
33rd annual production of Charles Dickens’<br />
A Christmas Carol—a cherished holiday tradition<br />
whose magic has won the hearts of more than<br />
1 million Chicagoans over three decades.<br />
Five world-premiere productions in 2011<br />
contributed to the impressive statistics we’ve<br />
amassed over the past decade, including 16 world<br />
premieres by artists of color, 20 premieres by<br />
female writers and the completion of August<br />
Wilson’s 20th Century Cycle. The new year<br />
began with The Trinity River Plays, Regina Taylor’s<br />
lyrical triptych, and Thomas Bradshaw’s provocative<br />
Mary, followed by God of Carnage, a broad<br />
popular success, hot on the heels of its Broadway<br />
bow. Next, the <strong>Goodman</strong> was pleased to present<br />
Tanya Saracho’s moving El Nogalar, followed<br />
by Stage Kiss, the latest work from MacArthur<br />
Fellowship winner Sarah Ruhl. In addition,<br />
the world premiere of David Henry Hwang’s<br />
Broadway-bound Chinglish drew new audiences<br />
to the <strong>Goodman</strong>: more than one-third attended<br />
for the first time.<br />
To promote the <strong>Goodman</strong> during this exciting time<br />
we formed the 10th Anniversary Civic Committee,<br />
a diverse group of more than 65 corporate and<br />
civic leaders representative of Chicago’s multicultural<br />
landscape. Together they endorsed the<br />
Anniversary and helped to raise the <strong>Goodman</strong>’s<br />
visibility to an all-time high during the 2010/2011<br />
Season. Our ticket sales and fundraising goals<br />
also reflected this increased national interest,<br />
reaching all-time highs in many areas.<br />
With our inaugural August Wilson Awards, we<br />
recognized those who have demonstrated an<br />
exemplary commitment to advancing diversity at<br />
the theater: Life Trustees Peter C.B. Bynoe and<br />
María Bechily and Past Chairman Lester N.<br />
Coney, as well as JPMorgan Chase and The Joyce<br />
Foundation. We bestowed these awards at our<br />
fall Diversity Breakfast—a moving event in which<br />
we fondly remembered August Wilson as well as<br />
Irv Markin, whom we lost too soon.<br />
Aptly titled “One Enchanted Decade,” our May 21<br />
black-tie Gala event featured Broadway superstar<br />
and Glee heartthrob Matthew Morrison, who<br />
brought the crowd to its feet with a memorable<br />
program of song and dance. We paid tribute to all<br />
of the Past Chairmen of <strong>Goodman</strong> <strong>Theatre</strong>’s Board<br />
of Directors, as well as our Honorary Chairman,<br />
Stephen Louis Grush and Mary Beth Fisher in The Seagull. Photo by Liz Lauren.

Albert <strong>Goodman</strong>. All proceeds from the <strong>Goodman</strong><br />
Gala, organized by the Woman’s Board, go to<br />
supporting our Education and Community<br />
Engagement programs, which are benchmarks for<br />
arts education across the country. “One Enchanted<br />
Decade” raised record-breaking amounts of<br />
support for our Student Subscription Series and<br />
General Theater Studies programs, as well as our<br />
other education initiatives.<br />
We have achieved so many milestones during<br />
the past decade in addition to the productions that<br />
light up our stages year after year. The <strong>Goodman</strong><br />
has provided 3,000 jobs, sold 2 million tickets,<br />
paid $38 million to living artists and offered<br />
4,500 performances over the past decade —<br />
reinforcing our position as the anchor of downtown’s<br />
Loop theater district. I would like to thank<br />

From the<br />
President of the<br />
Women’s Board<br />
The <strong>Goodman</strong>’s 2010/2011 Season included<br />
three exciting events planned and hosted by<br />
the <strong>Goodman</strong> <strong>Theatre</strong> Women’s Board, plus a<br />
very successful Women’s Board Annual Fund<br />
campaign led by Co-Chairs Linda Aylesworth<br />
and Mindy Berkson. In all, the Women’s Board<br />
projects raised $1.75 million for the theater. A<br />
portion of these funds was allocated to sponsor<br />
the world premiere production of Chinglish.<br />
On September 26 we launched the <strong>Goodman</strong>’s<br />
10th anniversary on Dearborn Street with a<br />
Season Opening Celebration featuring Candide,<br />
directed by Manilow Resident Director Mary<br />
Zimmerman. The festivities included cocktails and<br />
dinner at the Modern Wing of the Art Institute,<br />
a special tribute to Founding Chairman Stanley<br />
Freehling and Honorary President Lewis Manilow,<br />
and a performance of Candide at the <strong>Goodman</strong>.<br />
Special thanks goes to Co-Chairs Carol Prins and<br />
John Hart, Vicki and Bill Hood and Susan and Bob<br />
Wislow for their leadership of this wonderful event.<br />

The <strong>Goodman</strong> <strong>Theatre</strong> Vision<br />
<strong>Goodman</strong> <strong>Theatre</strong> is Chicago’s most established and largest not-for-profit theater,<br />
internationally renowned for the quality of its productions, the depth and diversity of its<br />
artistic leadership, and for its many community and educational programs. g The vision of<br />
the <strong>Goodman</strong> is to become the premier cultural organization in Chicago through productions<br />
and community programs that make an essential contribution to the quality of life in<br />
our society. g The <strong>Goodman</strong> has identified three institutional values that form the basis<br />
for the vision and objectives of <strong>Goodman</strong> <strong>Theatre</strong>, and serve as guiding pillars for our<br />
productions and programming. These values are:<br />
Quality<br />
<strong>Goodman</strong> <strong>Theatre</strong> believes that live theater<br />
illuminates the past, informs the present and<br />
imagines the future. We seek to provide our<br />
audiences with the definitive theater experience.<br />
We strive to give our artists the resources that<br />
enable them to do the best possible work with<br />
the highest standards of excellence.<br />
Diversity<br />
<strong>Goodman</strong> <strong>Theatre</strong> believes that respect for<br />
diversity is a cornerstone of our community<br />
and our society. Our work features a variety<br />
of aesthetics, cultures and modes of theatrical<br />
expression. We are committed to promoting<br />
creativity, collaboration, artistic risk-taking,<br />
freedom of expression and cultural diversity.<br />
Community<br />
<strong>Goodman</strong> <strong>Theatre</strong> believes that live theater<br />
plays a unique role in the educational, social<br />
and economic development of a community.<br />
For example, theater develops cognitive skills,<br />
emotional growth and moral awareness, particularly<br />
in young people. Since the <strong>Goodman</strong> is a<br />
part of the community, we believe that we have a<br />
responsibility to improve the quality of life through<br />
our productions and educational programs.<br />

A co-production with Shakespeare <strong>Theatre</strong><br />
Company, Washington, DC<br />
Tony and MacArthur “Genius” Award–winning<br />
director Mary Zimmerman’s breathtaking new<br />
production of Candide was the theatrical event<br />
of the season. In addition to the music of<br />
Leonard Bernstein, Candide featured contributions<br />
from some of the greatest lyricists of the<br />
twentieth century. In this racy musical satire,<br />
naive Candide is banished for romancing the<br />
Baron’s daughter, only to be plagued by a<br />
series of absurd hardships that challenge his<br />
optimistic outlook on life and love.

A timeless holiday tradition, the <strong>Goodman</strong>’s<br />
production of A Christmas Carol celebrates the<br />
yuletide season by infusing Charles Dickens’<br />
classic tale with a little bit of magic, as only the<br />
<strong>Goodman</strong> can. From amazing flying ghosts to a<br />
quiet little boy and his crutch, A Christmas Carol<br />
is filled with enough singing, dancing and enchantment<br />
to rejuvenate even the most disheartened<br />
of souls. Audiences delighted as the cast helped<br />
transform the miserly Ebenezer Scrooge through<br />
the course of one very memorable Christmas Eve.<br />

A co-production with Dallas Theater Center<br />
In The Trinity River Plays (Jarfly, Rain and<br />
Ghoststory), Regina Taylor explores the unique<br />
passages in one woman’s life journey. In Jarfly, Iris<br />
is determined to go to college and become a writer,<br />
while her rebellious cousin Jasmine has dropped<br />
out of high school to follow a path of self-destruction.<br />
The cousins come to a crossroads when<br />
Jasmine draws Iris into the terrible secret she has<br />
been hiding since childhood. Rain was first seen as<br />
part of the <strong>Goodman</strong>’s 2009 New Stages Series.<br />
In the play, fiercely independent Iris has made a<br />
successful life for herself as a journalist in New<br />
York City — but when her marriage fails, she begins<br />
to unravel. In search of solace, Iris returns to her<br />
mother’s house in Texas, but her homecoming<br />
proves more confounding than consoling when her<br />
mother makes a shocking announcement. As<br />
long-buried family secrets come to light, Iris must<br />
face her past and make some difficult decisions<br />
about the future. In Ghoststory, Iris is surprised<br />
by a visit from her estranged husband, Frank,<br />
desperate for a reconciliation. But before this<br />
reconnection can be explored, she must confront<br />
and embrace the specters of her past that continue<br />
to haunt her present.<br />

The New Yorker called “ninety minutes of<br />

life — or is it the other way around? When<br />
ex-lovers He and She are thrown together as<br />
romantic leads in an outrageously dreadful<br />
melodrama, they quickly lose touch with reality as<br />

Stage Kiss is a hilarious, off-beat fairy-tale about<br />
what happens when lovers share a stage kiss—<br />
or when actors share a real one.<br />

a fraud, and he is captivated by a beautiful,<br />
seemingly supportive government official who talks<br />

“AIDS hysteria” in 1983, college student David<br />
invites his boyfriend home to his parents’ house<br />
in Virginia where nothing has changed since the<br />

In an unprecedented artistic event, <strong>Goodman</strong><br />
<strong>Theatre</strong> invited Eastern Europe’s Belarus Free<br />
<strong>Theatre</strong> to Chicago for a limited engagement of<br />
Being Harold Pinter. Presented in partnership<br />
with Northwestern University, the League of<br />
Chicago <strong>Theatre</strong>s and Chicago Shakespeare<br />
Theater, Being Harold Pinter arrived in Chicago<br />
on the heels of its sold-out engagement at<br />
New York’s Under the Radar Festival— in which<br />
the Belarus Free <strong>Theatre</strong> participated after its<br />
members narrowly escaped imprisonment in<br />
their homeland in December 2010.<br />
Hailed as “truly passionate, truly political theater<br />
[that] isn’t just admirable, it has virtues beyond<br />
its relevance and bravery” (The New York Times),<br />
Being Harold Pinter incorporates transcripts from<br />
Belarusian political prisoners with excerpts from<br />
Nobel Prize–winning playwright Harold Pinter’s<br />
lifetime of writings. Belarus Free <strong>Theatre</strong> created<br />
visually striking images with simple means and<br />
underscores the fierceness of Pinter’s words with<br />
the intense physicality of the actors. Being Harold<br />
Pinter blurred the boundaries between art and<br />
reality, delivering a poignant contemporary<br />
commentary on violence, oppression, freedom<br />
and human dignity.<br />

The <strong>Goodman</strong> held a ceremony with Mayor and<br />

corps of Chicago actors including (Center picture,<br />

Ernest Perry, Jr., Henry Godinez, Mary Beth<br />
Fisher and Brian Dennehy. <strong>Goodman</strong> leadership<br />
then paid tribute to the visionaries who made the<br />
new theater a reality and specifically recognized<br />
the contributions of Richard and Maggie Daley by<br />
making them Honorary Trustees of the theater<br />
and dedicating a pair of theater seats in their<br />
names. Photo by Eric Y. Exit.<br />

A Heartfelt Tribute<br />
Richard M. and Maggie Daley<br />
Richard M. Daley, the longest serving mayor of Chicago, had a boundless enthusiasm<br />
for the arts which led to incredible feats including the revitalization of the North Loop<br />
<strong>Theatre</strong> District, the creation of Millennium Park and the building of <strong>Goodman</strong> <strong>Theatre</strong>’s<br />
new home on Dearborn Street. Mayor Daley helped to arrange the donation of the<br />
Selwyn and Harris theaters, played a key role in securing funding for the new <strong>Goodman</strong><br />
<strong>Theatre</strong> and participated in several high-profile events during our capital campaign.<br />
At a re-dedication ceremony, which celebrated the <strong>Goodman</strong>’s first decade on Dearborn,<br />
the theater honored Mayor and Mrs. Daley for their substantial contributions to our<br />
organization. During the ceremony, the Daleys were named Honorary Life Trustees of<br />
<strong>Goodman</strong> <strong>Theatre</strong> and two seats in the Albert <strong>Theatre</strong> were dedicated to them, now<br />
commemorated with plaques bearing their names.<br />
(left to right) <strong>Goodman</strong> Trustees Les Coney, Patricia Cox, Richard Weisberg, Lewis Manilow<br />
and Sondra Healy with Maggie and Richard Daley.<br />
In Memoriam<br />
“[the theater] is a mirror…in a way, we get to face our<br />
personal triumphs and our calamities, our celebrations<br />
and our remembrances. the theater is a remarkable place<br />
and we’re all very fortunate to have it in our life here in<br />
this wonderful space.”<br />
Maggie Daley at the November 2010<br />
Re-dedication of the new <strong>Goodman</strong> <strong>Theatre</strong><br />
g<br />
All of us at the <strong>Goodman</strong><br />
mourn the loss of Maggie<br />
Daley, whose love of<br />
education and the arts<br />
helped transform Chicago<br />
into a vibrant place to live<br />
and work.<br />
The first civic organization that Mrs. Daley became<br />
involved with was the city’s Cultural Center, the<br />
old central library that she helped remake into a<br />
centerpiece for culture in Chicago. In 1991 she<br />
founded Gallery 37, a program to promote arts<br />
training and jobs for Chicago youth. This initiative<br />
evolved into After School Matters, a not-for-profit<br />
program to provide teens with educational and<br />
career-oriented activities in such areas as sports<br />
and technology. Mrs. Daley also helped put a<br />
positive face on metastatic breast cancer, which<br />
can often be an isolating experience, by living with<br />
it publicly for nine years.<br />
Her dignity and passion inspired countless people<br />
who continue to champion her favorite charities.<br />
She will be remembered for her graciousness, her<br />
concern for children’s welfare and education, and<br />
her love for our city throughout her 22 years as<br />
the first lady of Chicago. She will be missed.

had the ability to inspire her colleagues.<br />
Joan also served on boards of the Art Institute<br />
of Chicago, University of Chicago, Northwestern<br />
University, the Cradle and the Rehabilitation<br />
Institute, and was a Life Trustee of Ravinia<br />

World War II and was a founding partner of the<br />
firm Vedder, Price, Kaufman & Kammholz. He<br />
was a member of the undefeated 1933 football<br />
team at DePauw University, where he received an<br />
undergraduate degree. He received his JD from<br />
