Conference in Chicago

The Monday and Tuesday after my Birthday I got to go to an expanded board meeting for my union - Actors' Equity Association. It was a great time. We have a new president and executive director and discussed the many positive aspects of the Union and then things that need work and how to make them better.




















Because I am in a liaison city (Chicago is the office city) when I participate in board meetings and committee meetings, it is always by telephone hook-up. The best part of the weekend was getting a chance to put a face with the other liaison voices.

After a long, unseasonably hot day, we all took open air trolleys to Navy Pier and the Skyline room of Chicago Shakespeare for the Regional membership meeting. It was a wonderful view of the city and a great meeting, very exciting.

Overall, it was a little like work, but it was a great birthday weekend!
