The Chicago Show takes place from October 6 to 9 at the Merchandise Mart in Chicago. Tick ets to events, including the opening night party, can be purchased at thechicagoshow.net. Tickets will also be available at the door.

No eight-month supply chain delays here.”

At home, the Russes have a coach house where among the vehicles you’ll find parked there at any given time (aside from the MG) are a 2022 Porsche Macan GTS, 2019 Boxster Porsche GTS, and a 1964 Porsche 356

“All of them were painted Silver Streak Grey, all of them had red wheels, and all of them had a red radiator and red interior,” says Ed, an auto show committee member who has been participating every year since its inception. “The frame is ash, still intact, and it’s really in excellent condition. The only major modification is the addition of a roll bar and sway bar and a little tweaking to the engine. That’s why it’s such a special car.”
Tena, who hasn’t driven an automatic in decades (she “got religion” when she met Ed and went back to driving stick), says she loves Road America as much as her husband.

Motors Jaguar, and Northern Trust and par ticipating sponsors and dealerships included Hill & Stone Insurance, Audi/Porsche Exchange, Ferrari Lake Forest, Glenview Luxury Imports, Knauz Automotive Group, Steve Foley Rolls Royce and Bentley, and Northshore Sportscars, each showcasing signature models.
“The auto show is a ‘then and now’ show case so I'm bringing an almost new Porsche as the new one and the MG as the old one,” says Ed, explaining that the whole reason he bought the 1953 MG TD/C was to replace a Porsche 356 he used to race at Road America in Elkhart Lake. “I have been in structing there since the 1970s. The cars are just so magnificent. You see a million-dollar car on the racetrack and it’s like ‘wow’.”

“I never saw as many race cars or Porsches as I saw at Road America. My first trip up there, I came back with a whole lot of pho tographs, but they weren’t of him or his cars. They were of Mini Coopers,” she laughs. “So, as a result, I’m on my third Mini Cooper now and you can’t pry that out of my hands.”
He served as co-chair of that committee, along with fellow co-chair John Maxson. Committee members included Jim Opsitnik, Shaun Carter, Steve Stitle, Dan Sobczyk, Bruce Grabenkort, Robert Ritholz, David Taylor, Michelle Bries Nichols, Joan Lynch, Max Lynch, and Mike Kalodimos.

Ed says he found the vintage gem online in 2017, and quickly learned it was more than just another MG. This particular automobile was one of only 50 specialty cars that had been tweaked for friends of British Motorcars on the assembly line. Twenty-five of them stayed in England; the other 25 were imported to Norfolk, Virginia.

Americans have been obsessed with automobiles for over a century now, each decade ushering in one nifty innovation after another. And while there are always those people (you know who you are) who view vehicles as merely a utilitarian mode of transport, most of us have a romanticized tale (or three) about the cars of our lives and what they mean to us.

“I love the variety of it,” says Tena, who is coming up on her 40th wedding anniversary with Ed, sharing his passion for cars through the decades. “Everybody comes out and it’s just an incredible parade of cars you just don’t see. It’s very special to have some of them there.”

“There’sin. no way this show could happen without Joanna,” Ed continues, giving props to Rolek and the Lake Forest/Lake Bluff Chamber of Commerce committee. “I like to drive Porsches, race the MG, but so many cars are just fun to look at. Wish I could fit them all in the garage.”
“EdSC.is a fabulous driver and instructor and people come to him for advice and help all the time,” she continues. “We can fit five cars in that coach house so it’s not uncommon to see Ed out there with the hood up and a group of friends.

My grandmother inspired my love of cooking. I remember many summers pick ing zucchini in her garden, and my job was to grate it for the bread. I would pore through her cookbooks and hand-written recipe cards, many stained and marked up with her notes, while we waited for it to bake. Now, like my grandmother, I have a large collection of cookbooks that I pore over, making notes just as she did.

This time of year, gardens and farmers’ markets are abundant with produce. One crop in particular that seems to grow almost overnight is zucchini. There are so many great cooking options with zucchini—you can simply sauté it, make soup, shave it thin for salad, or make stuffed zucchini boats— but my favorite recipe is my grandmother’s zucchini bread.

There is nothing better than slicing into a fresh loaf of zucchini bread, your kitchen fragrant with the smell of cinnamon, and eating a slice with soft butter and a touch of honey. It is perfect for breakfast, brunch, or an afternoon snack. You can also spread it with cream cheese and make tea sand wiches to serve on the side of a salad.

“I wanted to become a student of leader ship, while learning about entrepreneurship,” says Baren, a nature-lover, snow skier, cyclist, and hiker. “I also wanted to gain the skills needed to lead an organization and to build a team. As a leader, I’m a combination of deci siveness and deliberation. I had to be decisive in emergency medicine, and it’s important, crucial, to be deliberate in other scenarios. I plan to engage deliberately and frequently with students to hear their unique voices about what is important to their futures.
“Early in my professional career as an aca demic physician, I felt a tremendous calling to pursue ethics training and to establish deeper connections with humanists within and beyond my field,” says Baren, the wife of Detroit native Ken, an ENT doctor, and the mother of their sons Noah, 25, and Drew, 23. “This had a tremendous impact on my sub sequent teaching, research, and professional interactions.”Barengother executive MBA at Brandeis University in Waltham, Massachusetts, in part because of her desire to add leadership to her professional arsenal.
