Since 1880, the organization has entertained several generations of individuals in various concert halls, public parks, schools, churches and elsewhere. Nearly 250,000 people attend live music presentations every year; with an additional 610,000 (estimated) listening to the Symphony via radio, internet and television broadcasts. In addition to the concerts at Powell Hall, more than one-third of the organization's audiences hear musicians perform at parks, schools, churches and other venues throughout the region. In addition, more than 27% of the total audience for all the performances during the year pays little or nothing to hear those performances. The organization's best-known educational programs are its three series of education concerts in Powell Hall, which began in the 1920s and today serve over 26,000 students annually. In addition to educating and entertaining youngsters at Powell Hall, the musicians make nearly 115 visits to local schools each season. Many of these visits occur through the E. Desmond Lee Fine Arts Education Collaborative, a partnership with the University of Missouri-St Louis (UMSL), twelve local arts organizations, (Continued on Schedule O, Statement 1) 0 0 0 23909898 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 1 1 1 0 0 1 161 0 1 516 1 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 1 1 0 X 49 46 1 0 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 0 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 0 IL X X X James J Garrone 3145332500 718 North Grand Blvd St Louis MO 63103 Barry H Beracha Chairman 2 0 X X 0 0 0 Kimberley Ann Eberlein Vice Chairman 2 0 X X 0 0 0 Jo Ann Taylor Kindle Vice Chairman 2 0 X X 0 0 0 David L Steward Vice Chairman 2 0 X X 0 0 0 Emily Rauh Pulitzer Secretary 2 0 X X 0 0 0 Rick A Short Treasurer 2 0 X X 0 0 0 Dr Donald M Suggs Assistant Treasurer 2 0 X X 0 0 0 Lawrence P Katzenstein General Counsel 2 0 X X 0 0 0 Paul Arenberg Trustee 1 0 X 0 0 0 Dr Steven Baldwin Trustee 1 0 X 0 0 0 Thriess Britton Trustee 1 0 X 0 0 0 Dino Cannella Trustee 1 0 X 0 0 0 William Carey Trustee 1 0 X 0 0 0 Landers Carnal Trustee 1 0 X 0 0 0 Keith A Duplain Trustee 1 0 X 0 0 0 Norman Eaker Trustee 1 0 X 0 0 0 Carolyn Graham Farrell Trustee 1 0 X 0 0 0 David Fischhoff Trustee 1 0 X 0 0 0 James Forsyth III Trustee 1 0 X 0 0 0 Nancy Galvin Trustee 1 0 X 0 0 0 Walter Hawkins Jr Trustee 1 0 X 0 0 0 Cheryl Holman Trustee 1 0 X 0 0 0 Marjorie Ivey Trustee 1 0 X 0 0 0 Gayle Jackson Trustee 1 0 X 0 0 0 William James Trustee / Musician 40 0 X 112587 0 26116 Patricia Lane Trustee 1 0 X 0 0 0 Ned O Lemkemeier Trustee 1 0 X 0 0 0 Sally S Levy Trustee 1 0 X 0 0 0 Kathleen Mattis Trustee / Musician 40 0 X 108315 0 24881 Noemi Neidorff Trustee 1 0 X 0 0 0 Sanford Neuman Trustee 1 0 X 0 0 0 David A Norton Trustee 1 0 X 0 0 0 James Nouss Trustee 1 0 X 0 0 0 Kathleen T Osborn Trustee 1 0 X 0 0 0 Dr John A Pieper Trustee 1 0 X 0 0 0 Margaret Ann Ritter Trustee 1 0 X 0 0 0 Dr Victor Ruiz Trustee 1 0 X 0 0 0 Curtis Searcy Trustee 1 0 X 0 0 0 Janice Seele Trustee 1 0 X 0 0 0 Walter Shifrin Trustee 1 0 X 0 0 0 Thelma E Steward Trustee 1 0 X 0 0 0 Dr Holden Thorp Trustee 1 0 X 0 0 0 John Tvrdik Trustee 1 0 X 0 0 0 Susan Veidt Trustee 1 0 X 0 0 0 Anne von der Heydt Trustee 1 0 X 0 0 0 Phoebe Weil Trustee 1 0 X 0 0 0 Peri Widener Trustee 1 0 X 0 0 0 Donna Wilkinson Trustee 1 0 X 0 0 0 Marie-Helene Bernard President/Chief Executive Officer 40 0 X X X 0 0 0 John Easley Co-Interim CEO / VP -
