<strong>CAMA</strong> fondly remembers Andre Meir Saltoun,<br />
former Board Director and Director Emeritus,<br />
who was cherished by <strong>the</strong> Community Arts<br />
Music Association community. Andre joined<br />
<strong>the</strong> <strong>CAMA</strong> Board in 2005 and served for<br />
14 years, including as President from 2012<br />
through 2015.<br />
Born in Iraq and fluent in French, Arabic<br />
and English, a teacher encouraged Andre to<br />
pursue higher education in <strong>the</strong> United States.<br />
Andre undertook a harrowing journey which<br />
included traveling on a coal boat filled <strong>with</strong><br />
unsavory characters from France to Texas.<br />
A loan from a boat officer enabled Andre to<br />
get to <strong>the</strong> East Coast where bridge games<br />
and washing dishes paid for his successful<br />
completion of an undergraduate degree at<br />
<strong>the</strong> University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.<br />
Andre attended <strong>the</strong> University of<br />
Wisconsin Law School where he served as<br />
managing editor of <strong>the</strong> Wisconsin Law Review.<br />
Upon graduation, he accepted an offer at <strong>the</strong><br />
first and only international law firm at <strong>the</strong><br />
time, Baker & McKenzie in <strong>Chicago</strong>. Given<br />
his language skills and counsel to American<br />
and French multinationals, Andre worked<br />
closely <strong>with</strong> ano<strong>the</strong>r senior partner, Christine<br />
Lagarde of Baker & McKenzie, Paris, who currently<br />
serves as President of <strong>the</strong> European<br />
Central Bank. Andre was awarded <strong>the</strong> French<br />
Legion of Honor in 1975, <strong>the</strong> highest decoration<br />
awarded to a civilian by France, for <strong>the</strong><br />
many years he served as legal counsel to <strong>the</strong><br />
French government in <strong>Chicago</strong>.<br />
In <strong>the</strong> late 1980s Andre moved to San<br />
Francisco where he met his wife, Michele. As<br />
<strong>the</strong>y looked forward to Andre’s retirement in<br />
2005, <strong>the</strong> couple chose Montecito as <strong>the</strong>ir<br />
home. Andre enjoyed an active life in <strong>Santa</strong><br />
<strong>Barbara</strong> that included memberships at <strong>the</strong><br />
<strong>Santa</strong> <strong>Barbara</strong> Polo and Racquet Club and<br />
Birnam Wood Golf Club. While Andre served<br />
as an officer and member of numerous committees<br />
during his years on <strong>the</strong> <strong>CAMA</strong> Board,<br />
perhaps his greatest contribution was in<br />
skillfully guiding <strong>the</strong> process by which <strong>CAMA</strong><br />
decided to move our International Series<br />
from <strong>the</strong> Arlington <strong>The</strong>atre to <strong>the</strong> newly renovated<br />
<strong>Granada</strong> <strong>The</strong>atre in 2008.<br />
Andre passed away peacefully at his<br />
Montecito home in July 2020 <strong>with</strong> his wife,<br />
Michele, by his side.<br />
