Director,

Instructor: I proudly began my 28th year as a University of Indianapolis employee on July 1, 2011—a great place to go to college! I am very grateful to have received the Honorary Alumni Award from the Alumni Association at UIndy in June 2000. The Indiana Association for College Admission Counseling (IACAC) presented me with the Dorothy Cheesman Distinguished Service Award in 1995 for "dynamic leadership and dedicated service." On March 4, 2009, the Indianapolis Convention and Visitors Association named me a 2009 ROSE Award honoree for five years of volunteer work with the Indianapolis Theatre Fringe Festival. Thank you, ICVA! Rose Awards Web page

Favorite Pastime The mighty Tower of Power
Everyone has a favorite band. Mine is the legendary soul and funk band from Oakland, California, Tower of Power, one of the world's most enduring bands, formed in 1968 and still going strong in their 43rd year in 2010-2011! Half the band consists of original band members! I've traveled over 33,000 miles to see 72 shows in 12 states, and I can't wait for the next opportunity to see a show. Their 29th CD, Great American Soulbook, was released a couple of years ago. Check it out for a funky good time! Their world-renowned horn section has recorded on hundreds of albums and CDs, and the 1-2 knockout punch of drummer David Garibaldi and bassist Rocco Prestia truly embodies "Rhythm in the Reign" and defines the paradigm when it comes to the groove! Visit the band's Web site at: http://www.towerofpower.com. I'm honored and delighted to be acquainted with the band members and to have had the opportunity to run half a dozen Web sites for current and former members of the band. I owe them a great debt of gratitude that I can never truly repay. This is a good and decent group of men that are top-drawer musicians. Other Music Favorites
