Kathy Crandall's report to the membership

Two years ago I had the glorious task of interviewing all fourteen of the Opera League past presidents who were honored at the Hemmings Awards dinner in 2012.  It was an enlightening and humbling experience.  I wondered then – and still do as I write this  – if I am up to the task of following in their footsteps.  They accomplished so much – without them, there would not be an Opera League today.  Following our 15^th past president will be no easy task either. 

It’s been said “time flies when you are having fun”. My two years are almost over and then I will join my fourteen predecessors who paved the way, all of whom we honored last year at the Hemmings Award Dinner. This year the Hemmings event will honor Eva and Marc Stern, recognized for their remarkable contributions to LA Opera and the arts in Los Angeles. I hope many of you will again join us for that occasion. Read more about the Hemmings Dinner in this Bravo issue.
