When I walked in the door (Sam Swope Honda World) I was greeted warmly by a Senior Sales Consultant. It was clear that she knew her ‘stuff’ as she made suggestions and listened to my needs.

There was no pressure during our chat. The test drive confirmed my choice of the CRV. I love it!

The sale/paper work was handled privately and efficiently. Again, any questions or concerns were answered thoughtfully. I have had two routine service visits. My Service Advisor was very pleasant.

I was confident that she would see that everything was done well and in a timely manner. A very happy car buying experience! It has been a year since I purchased my Honda CRV….I still love it!!!

is proud to once again sponsor The Julep Ball, Louisville’s premier Derby gala, one that unites philanthropy and the health of the city by donating proceeds to the James Graham Brown Cancer Center.

Honorary Chairs Charlie and Lisa Dahlem ( featured in Chat with the Chair) were inspired by Charlie’s mother’s model behavior to establish The Debby Dahlem fund to help cancer patients negotiate the rigors of chemotherapy. Debby, the 1949 UofL Homecoming Queen, is also featured in Nretrospect.

While we await Derby, we have the Humana Festival of New American Plays (now through April 6) to entertain our imaginations and remind us of the importance of how we represent the world around us. representing Louisville is something Nfocus takes on seriously, creatively and joyously each month!

hen Gunnar and I sat down to plan Deborah Greenwald’s photo shoot, I brought inspiration photos of Lady Mary and statues of Athena from the Louvre. If you know Deborah, you know that her intelligence, manners, wit and beauty are purely classical, which is why my mind went immediately to Ancient Greece and Downton Abbey! The execution is all that I imagined– a beautiful representation of the work Deborah does for Heuser Hearing and Language Academy, Susan G. Komen, and the Center for Interfaith relations. Tonya Abeln’s article “Model Behavior” sets the tone for this issue, which is filled with stories of people in Louisville working for the spiritual and physical health of our city.

It’s March, and already we’re all gearing up for Derby and the flood of events that celebrate it. Nfocus

The Opera’s Carnevale From Verona with Love

Y

ou might have thought you were in Italy on January 25 when the Marriott Downtown was transformed into a veritable Verona, with the ballroom divided between the houses of Capulet and Montague, as the cast of the Kentucky Opera’s Roméo et Juliette performed arias and ensembles throughout the evening. The Opera’s annual Carnevale Gala opened with a grand wine and spirit tasting, along with a variety of silent auction areas, featuring pieces of art, luxury items and travel experiences. “Not only was an Italian villa created for the exceptional performances of the artists, but the entire ballroom was transformed into a festival of romance and pleasure,” shared David Roth, General Director of the Kentucky Opera.

“The menu paired food and wine to the five acts of the opera,” continued Roth, “while the evening culminated with an epic dance party in the Lovers Grotto.”

Following dinner, a live auction and dream getaway raffle included trips to either Tokyo or London and Paris.

“With the Brown-Forman 2014/15 Season, Kentucky Opera launches a new vision for the company that we call A Repertoire Reimagined. For the next five years we will feature new productions of rare works by the master composers, works that have never been produced by Kentucky Opera and new works the speak to the American Experience,” Roth explained. “Beginning with Beethoven’s Fidelio, a classic work by one of the greatest composers which was last seen here in 1984, we will produce for the first time in Kentucky Opera’s history Puccini’s masterwork La Fanciulla des West (The Girl of the Golden West) in a gorgeous new production, and close the season with Andrén Previn’s new opera from Tennessee Williams’ classic American play, A Street Car Named Desire. These works represent our passion and belief that Kentucky Opera should be a destination for opera fans from across the region.” For more information and tickets to the upcoming Kentucky Opera season visit kyopera.org.

Wanna Play?

Science with a Twist

T

here’s just something about mini golf in cocktail attire or PB&Js with champagne that sends a thrill like you’re about to get in trouble for something worth getting into trouble over! But it was all fun and games—from old school arcade-style video games to video gaming on the Center’s new 4-story digital screen—at “Science with a Twist,” the Kentucky Science Center’s annual fundraiser in support of early education efforts.

Prior to the games, the evening began with a Power Hour Awards reception, sponsored by LG&E and KU, where Christorpher Cprek, Barbara James, and Dr. Lee Todd were honored for their efforts to advance science literacy in Kentucky. Cprek is the founder of LVL1, a 501(c)3 hacker space and Maker community in Louisville that blends engineering and entertainment to help children develop STEM (science, technology, engineering and math) identities. James, a public school teacher, also seeks to blend science, learning and fun. Todd, former University of Kentucky President, is an Electrical Engineering Faculty member who has founded two technology companies based on his research.

After Power Hour, the games began, along with a strolling hors d’oeuvres dinner provided by Horseshoe Southern Indiana and music and dancing by DJ Matt Anthony. Sponsor Brown-Forman provided cocktails at the over-21 event and “Tag You’re It” ticket holders enjoyed a VIP lounge throughout the evening. It was all “nanny, nanny boo boo” during LazerTag, and some guests (ah-hem, Mimi Hwang and Jessica Yu) brought some serious style to the chase.

While the fun and games were limited to adults at Science with a Twist, the Science Center is working with Girl Scouts of Kentuckiana to realize Cprek’s dream that Makerspaces are available to every student in Louisville with MakerPlace Family Workshops. Participants bring a hackable object from home and transform it into anything from a robotic pet to jewelry. Upcoming workshops will take place March 15, April 5 & 19, and May 17.

Imagine!

St. Francis School Art Auction

Alexandra Thurstone, Sandy Schreiber

T

he 18th annual IMAGINE! Art Auction and Scholarship Fundraiser for St. Francis School on January 31 was a fiery night of excitement at the Henry Clay, with 100% of the proceeds going to support the school’s educational scholarships. “Our inspiration for this year’s event was a quote from William Butler Yeats: ‘Education is not the filling of a pail but the lighting of a fire,’” shared Head of School and alumna Alexandra Thurstone. “The event this year was centered around how our faculty can do just that, which makes the IMAGINE! event vital for continuing the school’s scholarship program and fulfilling our mission.” With over 50 participating artists, the auction included work by St. Francis artist-in-residence Gaela Erwin and international photographer Wyatt Gallery.

While inspecting art pieces including beautifully handcrafted jewelry and the strokes of oil paint on canvas, guests enjoyed Brown-Forman cocktails and hors d’oeuvres before taking their seats for a decadent meal including satay noodles with scallions, cucumbers and sautéed jumbo shrimp and braised short ribs with wild mushroom hunter sauce and cinnamon ginger carrots. Following dinner, the live auction took the competitive bidding to a new level, with guests driving up the prices on trips to Puerto Rico, Marco Island, Florida, and Santa Fe, New Mexico.

Sponsors for IMAGINE! included Presenting Sponsors Brown-Forman and Buffalo Construction, Inc., and Gold Level Sponsors Commonwealth Bank & Trust Company, OB/GYN Associates of Southern Indiana, and the Diaz Family, all of which support St. Francis’ mission to cultivate a joyful, compassionate, intellectual community that celebrates individuality and inspires independent thinking for life.

Shakespeare in Love An Evening of Rhyme & Roses

L

ove scenes and sonnets performed by Kentucky Shakespeare actors filled 21c Museum Hotel on February 1 for an evening of rhyme and roses to benefit the oldest free Shakespeare festival in the country and largest touring arts-education program provider in the Commonwealth. “We’re incredibly grateful for our ‘Shakespeare In Love’ sponsors Brown-Forman and 21c Museum Hotel and all of our supporters who helped to make this event such a wonderful success,” shared Kentucky Shakespeare Producing Artistic Director Matt Wallace.

Hors d’oeuvres by Proof on Main abounded as guests enjoyed an open bar provided by Brown-Forman before hitting the dance floor with beats by the Highland Chamber Players and accompanying DJ. “The summer is rapidly approaching and we couldn’t be more excited about our new, expanded summer season,” said Wallace. “We begin rehearsals for A Midsummer Night’s Dream in just under three months. It’s going to be a very special summer…a true Festival.” With eight shows planned for the 2014 Shakespeare in the Park Summer Season, including A Midsummer Night’s Dream opening June 11, Henry V, Hamlet, Love’s Labour’s Lost, As You Like It, King Lear and Women of Will, the 56-performance season will be one you don’t want to miss. Community partners for the upcoming season include Le Petomane Theatre Ensemble, Walden Theatre, Savage Rose Classical Theatre and Shoestring Productions.

Free and open to the public, Shakespeare in the Park performances take place at the C. Douglas Ramey Amphitheatre, located on the corner of 4th St. and Magnolia in Frederick Law Olmsted’s Central Park in Old Louisville. For more information on the upcoming season and to learn about Kentucky Shakespeare’s educational programming visit kyshakes.org.

Aloha from Actors!

Lobster Feast – Hawaii 5-0

I

cy sidewalks and frigid temperatures weren’t enough to chill the spirits of Lobster Feast 2014 – Hawaii 5-0 attendees as they arrived at the Marriott Downtown in floral print shirts, hula skirts, sarongs and sandals for the 12th annual Lobster Feast benefiting Actors Theatre of Louisville. Coats were quickly discarded for colorful leis and Herradura margaritas, as Actors Theatre’s Artistic Director Les Waters and Managing Director Jennifer Bielstein greeted guests. “This is our annual affair and we are here to celebrate the past 50 wonderful years of Actors Theatre, and to welcome in another 50 wonderful years,” shared Waters.

Before bibbing up for an all-you-can-eat lobster feast, guests floated between silent auction “islands,” with over 100 items displayed on the islands of Kauai, Hawaii, Maui and O’ahu. Lava erupted from the volcano in the center of the stage– directing those still standing to take their seats for the live auction and lobster parade. “Aloha and Mahalo,” said Lobster Feast co-chairs Barbara and Bill Juckett.

“We want to thank you all for being here, for enjoying all the lobster you care to eat and for actively bidding to play your part in launching our beloved Actors Theatre into the next 50 years of brilliant, meaningful, thought-provoking theatre.”

“We’d like to give a big thanks to our Presenting Sponsor Tequila Herradura,” said Bielstein, “and supporting Sponsors Kindred Healthcare, Republic National Distributing Company of Kentucky, Suntan City and Tafel Motor Company.”

Following the feast, actresses Christine, Emily and Dana from the Pirates of Penzance and the Mistress of Ceremonies “Red Lobster” gave a rousing performance that inspired revelers, all decked out in leis, to party on the dance floor until midnight to the music of Hay DJ. With more than 840 guests in attendance, Lobster Feast was able to raise over $410,000 – a record breaking 25% leap from 2013!

Thanks to Actors Theatre and the Lobster Feast committee for bringing a little piece of Hawaiian heaven to Louisville for an evening of tropical cocktails, sea fare and celebration of the arts! For more information on Actors Theatre upcoming season including the 38th Humana Festival of New American Plays visit actorstheatre.org.

They Had a Ball!

Younger Woman’s Club 60th Annual Charity Ball

Elizabeth Scott, Karen Casi

L

et’s Have a Ball was the theme of the Younger Woman’s Club’s 60th annual Charity Ball, held February 8 at the Foundry at Glassworks, and have a ball, they did! “I attend many events and I have to say, YWC presents “Let’s Have a Ball” was a truly fun one, as I promised!” said YWC President Karen Casi.

Guests enjoyed hors d’oeuvres, open bar, silent auction, and so much dancing to the music of the band Kudmani that they’ve joined the ranks of Kudmaniacs!

They are maniacs for a good cause, as all proceeds of the Charity Ball are allocated, along with proceeds from their other fundraising efforts, to local, non-profit organizations that have applied for a grant and were approved by the YWC’s Charities Group Committee. In 2013, the Club gave more than $61,000 to 17 agencies, including the Heuser Hearing & Language Academy, Schuhmann Social Services Center, Cabbage Patch Settlement House, Family Scholar House, and Center for Women and Families!

Dawne Gee was honored as the Younger Woman’s Club 2014 Citizen Laureate at this year’s Ball. Previous recipients of the prestigious Citizen Laureate award are Norton Healthcare’s Lynnie Meyer (2010) and First Lady Jane Beshear (2011). The Younger Woman’s Club of Louisville, a 100% volunteer organization that has been doing good work in our city since 1921, was recently honored with the 2014 Gary Gupton Community Award from Down Syndrome of Louisville for their efforts to improve the lives of people with Down Syndrome.

“I am proud of the hard work of all my friends in the Younger Woman’s Club of Louisville,” said Madam President Casi, “Especially our event chairs Sarah Ritter Mitchell and Elizabeth C. Scott, and our auction chair Beckie Riley Ennis. Thank you to all my friends and our community who came out to support us­–we had a great time for a terrific cause! Come back next year!”

lickering lanterns and jewel toned drapes flanked guests as they arrived for the Heart Ball on February 15 at the Marriott Downtown. Greeters clad in elegant masks and immaculate costumes awaited, offering champagne cocktails to attendees before they became immersed in the silent auction including GE Appliances and bottles of Pappy Van Winkle.

“The work of the American Heart Association is critical to fight our community’s number one killer, heart disease,” shared Heart Ball co-chairs Dave and Jamie Calzi. “It is virtually inevitable that nearly everyone here tonight will be affected in some way by heart disease, and that is a trend we want to reverse. Funds raised tonight will be used to support heart and stroke research, public awareness education and advocacy work.”

Following cocktails and the silent auction, guests were seated for a hearthealthy meal surrounded by crystal candelabras and plumes of vibrant feathers.

“We want to thank all of you for being here tonight and supporting the life-saving mission of the American Heart Association to ‘build healthier lives, free of cardiovascular diseases and stroke,’” said Dave and Jamie. “We are overwhelmed by the generous support of the sponsors, donors, friends and family who have aided our efforts.” Some of the generous sponsors for the Heart Ball included the Frazier Family Foundation; Ernst and Young; Neace Lukens; Wellcare; WLKY; Her Scene Magazine; WHAS Radio; IGE Media; and VEST Advertising.

This year, the Heart Ball raised $580,000 to support the work done by the American Heart Association. These funds allow the Heart Association to continue investing in state-of-the-art research, healthy legislative policies and teaching communities how to choose healthy living habits to improve both the quality and quantity of life. For more information on the amazing work done by the American Heart Association visit www.heart.org

Model Behavior Deborah

Greenw

al d

With her porcelain skin and notable sense of decorum, Deborah Greenwald could have easily been plucked from an aristocratic family of a bygone era. But there is also something thoroughly modern about the way she has designed her life. Don’t be distracted by the beads, the gowns, the galas and the balls: Deborah’s “model behavior” is rooted deeply in service. She is certainly a lady, one whose commitment to education, community and family make our city a better place.

T

he phrases “London” and “Prince Charles” often arise in the same conversation, but very rarely, if ever, when the London in question is, in fact, London, KY. However, Deborah Greenwald, born and raised in the Central Kentucky town, manages to connect the two. “I don’t consider my life very glamorous,” she clarifies, “but I’m always amazed at the level of international connections in Louisville and the creative people who use those connections for good.” She describes the first meeting she attended to help plan Festival of Faiths: “I walked in to someone explaining that Prince Charles was interested in a certain topic and the next person at the table saying, ‘Oh, I’m having lunch with him next week so I’ll bring it up.’ I remember thinking, ‘Where am I?’” Deborah, who found herself in Derby City by way of attendance at the University of Louisville Brandeis School of Law, credits several mentors with helping her to navigate through the many avenues of volunteerism the city has to offer. “I wish I could say that I had this grand plan to work my way through volunteering for different organizations,” she explains, “but that is not how it happened at all.

It just evolved through the years. Now looking back at the people that I have a connection to in my life in this city, I met them all through volunteer work.”

She tributes one woman, in particular, for inspiring her early on, and whose memory still motivates her work today. The late beloved Louisville philanthropist Sug Schusterman, whose face also graced the cover of the NFocus “Model Behavior” issue, had a special interest in taking Deborah under her wing – a gift for which she is repeatedly acknowledged for two years after her passing. The two had first met in the late 90’s when their husbands were both serving on the board for CASA (Court Appointed Special Advocates).

“I was very new to the volunteer scene and had agreed to address envelopes on a day my mom came to visit. I decided to bring her with me to this commitment. The room was full of some very powerful people, none of whom I knew yet. Sug made a point to come

over and sit at our table and I will never forget how comfortable she made us. That is one of the things I loved about her so much; she had a lot of influence, but she was also very approachable.”

The Butterflies Years later, Sug would approach Deborah again, this time to ask for her help in developing a society called The Butterflies, a support system for Heuser Hearing and Language Academy. At the time of her request, Deborah had just signed on as the Chair for the 2010 Pink Tie Ball, so she put her off. “I know it was a wise decision in the sense that my plate was full, but I really regret that we didn’t get to make this journey together. So that’s why I’m here now, because she asked.” A year later, Sug explained that she was going to propose Deborah as a board member for Heuser and she would really like for her to step up as a leader in the organization. “I was going out of town that summer and couldn’t make the first board meeting so I asked her if we could just wait until I got back. She said, ‘No, we need to go on and do this now.’ Of course none of us knew how sick she was at the time, but now we all see that she was setting things up to make sure Heuser would be okay in her absence.”

Following their kick off in Fall 2013 at Malvern House, Deborah now serves as the President for Butterfly Society and the executive committee that banded to reenergize Sug’s vision are all there, in part, because of her legacy. What distinguishes the group, Deborah shares, is its accessibility: “Community involvement should not be a one-size-fits-all proposition. There needs to be a place for people that want to get involved but don’t have $5000 to donate. The membership for Butterfly Society is only $50 a year. Those funds are used for Heuser projects and membership opens a large door of opportunity to volunteer for the school.”

Heuser Hearing Institute has a long tradition of releasing butterflies as students graduate from the program every year. It has been said that when students arrive at the school, they feel as though they are alone in a dark cocoon, but Heuser helps them

develop their wings to fly. “That is hugely symbolic to the work that is done there,” Deborah describes. “One of my passions is education and there is only a small window of time for children to develop speech and a love of learning. If you can’t hear, in some cases you are at a disadvantage for life. That’s why Heuser’s work is so valuable. They can address the impairment before the window has closed.

When they finish the program, these students are not sent to deaf schools; they integrate into mainstream schools and are ready to compete with students that have full hearing capabilities.”

Interfaith In addition to serving as a board member for Heuser Hearing Institute, Deborah also engages in board membership at the Center for Interfaith Relations (CIR), a group with whom she plans the annual Festival of Faiths. The scope of this multi-day celebration is such that past speakers have included the Archbishop of Canterbury, Robert F. Kennedy and Arun Gandhi. CIR was established in 1985 by a group of civic leaders to promote interfaith understanding. “I value this group so much,” she explains, “because I’m in an interfaith marriage.” Deborah is a practicing Protestant and her husband Bart, whom she met in Law School, is a practicing Jew. “We work very hard to respect each other’s faith. We’re not asking each other to convert, but encourage each other to stay true to our own beliefs.

We can all always find a common cause to work toward together no matter what our faith may be.” This year’s Festival of Faiths will be May 14-18 at Actors Theatre of Louisville with another celebration to follow in November 2014.

A Purposeful Life Coincidentally, Deborah’s first volunteer memory in Louisville was on the campus of Heuser Hearing Institute, an organization to whom she devotes so much of her personal time now. “After Law School, a co-worker encouraged me to join Junior League Louisville and for our first community service day our project was to lay mulch at Heuser which was then known as the Louisville Deaf Oral School; so, I’ve known Heuser for 18 years now. That was the first of many experiences there.” It was through her involvement with Junior League and Younger Woman’s Club that Deborah says she really honed her leadership skills. “When I became a mom and left the work force,” she explains, “I wasn’t really growing in those areas. Both of those organizations were great training ground for being active in the community.

I value the time I spent with both groups.”

Those leadership skills landed her as Chair of Pink Tie Ball in 2010, Susan G. Komen’s highly anticipated and high profile annual fundraising gala. “When

someone on the board of Komen called to ask if I would be the Chair or if I could recommend someone, I fully think she thought I would give her some names to pursue. Instead I just said ‘okay’ and so I say that they just got me by default.”

Whatever the means, the event was hugely successful in terms of fundraising and long remembered for the innovative boxing ring display incorporated into the entertainment and décor of the evening. “Any success I had can be attributed to the supporters around me,” she modestly shares. “I couldn’t have pulled it off without Lisa Cofer and the volunteers that reminded me of details like, ‘You are going to need a place to put that big boxing ring the day after the ball,’ so of course committee members volunteered their time to make sure it all got done. That event was so much fun but it was a ton of work.”

Deborah is also quick to point out that volunteering must not always include a grand gesture or a great commitment of time. “I’m alarmed when I hear someone say they are bored. How can you be bored in a city as giving as this? ” she questions. “You can volunteer at a library. You can pick up trash when you are walking in your neighborhood. These are so basic that I’m almost embarrassed to say them, but the opportunity to give back is all around you. I can admit that it probably wouldn’t be fun to clean the toilets at Heuser, but if that’s what they needed from me, if that is what I needed to do to leave the world a better place than I found it, then I would willfully oblige. I see that example set in Louisville all the time, everywhere.”

After practicing law for six years, Deborah left the professional world to be a mother to her son Walker (12), who attends Louisville Collegiate School. She often jokes that she still practices family law free of charge: “I live with an attorney (her husband Bart practices commercial litigation law at Frost Brown Todd LLC) and a 12-year-old, so there is constant negotiating in my house.” When asked if she is helping to plan any big upcoming events, she responds with, “Does planning a Bar Mitzvah count?” She further jests that besides reading, her hobby is food: “Eating it and talking about it, not cooking it, of course. What better city to be a food lover than in our own?” But beyond the humor, Deborah states her life goals: “I want to be a person who honors God’s rules. I want to be good to my family, and not just my husband and child but I also take my relationship with my parents very seriously. And finally, I want to leave the world a better place and bring joy to the people in my life.”

Thanks to Deborah’s model behavior, many people in our city can attest that her last goal has been well accomplished.

“T

he Humana Festival is one of the great glories of U.S. and international theatre,” Actors Theatre’s Artistic Director, Les Waters, proclaimed to guests at the Festival kickoff party on February 20.

Clearly in agreement, the playwrights, actors, directors, designers and patrons gathered around Waters in the Brown Lobby sent up a cheer.

I

took a break on an icy afternoon the week of Valentine’s Day and made my way up Frankfort Avenue to a restaurant I usually associate with much nicer weather.

Chef John Varanese’s eponymous restaurant always evokes thoughts of mild Clifton evenings, enjoying the four seasons patio and 20-foot water wall while dining on an eclectic mix of world cuisine prepared with fresh local ingredients to the sounds of a jazz trio. However, on a cold February afternoon, the huge serpentine glass front doors collect a surprising amount of the weak wintery light and the bright dining room comes alive with an ambiance that banishes the chill and stimulates the appetite.

I was born and raised in Cleveland and started cooking in a mom-andpop Italian restaurant called “Dino’s Place” when I was 14; by 16 I was running the place. About that time, I started thinking about where to go to school and how to make money.

I came to the realization that I had already found my calling, not just as a chef, but as a restaurateur.

Running a successful business is not just about having a culinary vision, it’s also a discipline and the art of the back office.

What is your management style in the kitchen? Are you a straight up brigade system Chef?

Not at all, our kitchen is small, so I have to focus on the efficiencies of our scale. The kitchen is smaller, so what we do is a bit smaller. I have two sous chefs, and we run everything by stations. I guess I would like to think that I have a laid back management style. I like for everyone to have fun, so everyone knows their space and knows their partners will hold up their end of the business.

As you know, Nfocus is a philanthropy-focused publication, so what are a couple of your favorite charities?

Wow, that’s tough. There are so many worthy causes in this city and we try to be part of everything we can possibly do. I love them all, but to name a few we contribute to, the Heart Association, March of Dimes, and the Lung Association.

Can you relate to us a humorous kitchen experience?

One year at Oaks, we had a 40-top walk in the place to set up. We had them down for Saturday, they showed up Friday. So we rented tables and brought in everyone I could find to make it happen. To add insult to injury, a sheet pan of sea bass slipped out of the window and hit the floor. Absolute silence for at least three heartbeats! Luckily, we had the portions available for the next day and we were able to serve a great product. I tell you, this business is heaven and hell.

Where: KFC Yum! Center Tariff: Dinner: $600, Dance: $100 Info: thejulep.org

>> the look

P

erhaps more than ever, Louisville awaits the first signs of spring, but one need not look further than the home of Charlie and Lisa Dahlem on a snowy day in February. As this year’s honorary chairs of The Julep Ball, the couple hosted a kick-off party to talk Derby and their personal commitment to The Julep Ball and the James Graham Brown Cancer Center.

How did you get involved with The Julep Ball?

Charlie: This party with a purpose is a natural fit for us because my mother died two years ago from cancer. She was always concerned about people suffering who may not have the same support network she did, so the family established the Debby Dahlem Fund for Cancer at JGBCC in her memory to help patients that may have issues that interfere with their treatment. The cancer center staff identifies people who need help and the money goes directly to that need.

Lisa: We feel the way a lot of people feel – most of us will be affected by cancer in our lifetime, and to have the kind of research and treatment facility like the Brown Cancer Center right here is Louisville is ideal.

With the location set for KFC Yum! Center for the second year, what new elements have been planned for the event?

Lisa: This year, The Julep Ball has been recognized as an Official Event of the 140th running of the Kentucky Derby Presented by Yum! Brands, which is really the best distinction you can get.

We also have Maker’s Mark stepping in this year as a sponsor and providing an exceptional interactive experience by setting up a custom bar with what they call Maker’s Shakers. This allows you to build your own cocktails in a jar that will be dipped in their signature wax and can be taken home as souvenirs.

Charlie: It’s interesting that you can take this huge cavernous facility and turn it into a nice intimate setting. The décor chair, Natalie Officer, has worked with The Event Company this year

to create a space with an even more glamorous appeal. On top of that, we get to take advantage of the venue’s cutting edge technical and staging capabilities.

Speaking of entertainment, last year the crowd rocked out to the B-52’s; what will keep them dancing well into the morning hours this year?

Lisa: We have a tremendous opening act in store with Kentucky-born country artist, J.D. Shelburne. He was a guest of The Julep Ball last year and has become a real friend to the committee and the Brown Cancer Center. This summer he made a major impact by opening for Montgomery Gentry at The Kentucky State Fair and he will be playing original music as well as country and southern rock favorites.

Charlie: The entertainment is quite diverse this year because after J.D., we are thrilled to have The Bob Hardwick Sound take the stage.

Bob is a Louisville native and leads one of the greatest dance orchestras in the country averaging over 200 engagements per year all over the world including US Presidential Inaugurations.

They can read an audience unlike any other and transition from old standards to current pop hits with ease. It has been said that they are so you good, you can’t sit down even with two left feet!

With so many options, what separates The Julep Ball from other Derby parties?

Lisa: Of course every event this time of year has a celebrity connection, and we also have some great celebrities that will attend, but we are careful to tap only the ones who are engaged and interested in what the Cancer Center is doing. We put them in contact with the researchers and physicians and require a real investment from them.

Charlie: What separates the event for us will always be the cause it supports. Our goal as honorary chairs is to maximize the profitability of the event, not just as an exciting Derby gala, but with a view that it is an opportunity for everyone to support a fabulous facility from which we can all benefit.

“P

eace begins with a smile,” said Mother Teresa. It is the desire to bring that smile to the face of a child that motivates Dr. Korie Acord, Owner of Derby City Pediatric Dentistry. With the intention to fix, heal, and brighten smiles, Dr. Korie realized that dentistry was her destiny.

When she opened her Middletown practice in 2010, Dr. Korie had a specific atmosphere in mind: “We have a very young team, and they are all willing to go along with fun and light hearted dress up days and goofy events. The goal is to make the office feel like a cool, fun place to come, so patients never

While a fun atmosphere is certainly fostered at Derby City Pediatric Dentistry, so is a culture of service.

Dental decay is the most common disease affecting U.S. children. To help remedy this problem, while she was in dental school, Dr. Korie participated in Smile Kentucky, an American Dental Association (ADA) program that provides education and free dental care to children at local elementary schools.

“I thought, wouldn’t it be great, if we could also offer those services in our office? So this year we developed ‘Give Kids a Smile Day,’” she says of incorporating the national program that gives kids with no insurance free dental cleanings and treatment.

The project started by screening 200 children at three local elementary schools. The criteria for participating in

Children that were seen that day received an exam, x-rays, cleaning, fluoride and we were able to complete all treatment that they needed that day! Toothbrushes and toothpaste were provided by Colgate, and Henry Schein Dental Supply and 3M ESPE provided other supplies needed for cleanings and treatment.”

This year, Derby City Pediatric Dentistry will serve as a sponsor for The Down Syndrome of Louisville Gallop Gala to be held April 25. The office annually collects toys for Toys for Tots and sends candy to troops on active duty during Halloween. Dr. Korie has also volunteered as a Pediatric Dentist at Home of the Innocents. If it’s true that “when you smile, the whole world smiles with you,” Dr. Korie and her staff have created a monumental ripple effect by giving kids a smile.

CHARITY SPOTLIGHT

D

id you know that 1 in 5 Kentucky women have been victims of rape, nearly 1 in 2 have experienced other forms of sexual assault, and 1 in 3 will be the victim of domestic violence in her lifetime?

The Center of Women and Families provides support to the many women who are victims of domestic and sexual violence, women like Carla, Sharon and Jane. Carla sought help when her husband physically abused their young son. Sharon sought help when her domestic partner began abusing her.

Jane sought help after an acquaintance raped her one night in her restaurant.

The Center provided Carla and her son with immediate safe and comfortable housing. Crisis Counselors and Family Advocates at The Center

Women of Distinction were honored for the work they’ve done advocating for women and girls in Kentuckiana– Phyllis Florman, Kathryn Mershon, Judy Lambeth, Jennifer Jewell and Ann Coffey.

While providing support for women who are victims of domestic and sexual assault, The Center seeks to reduce the number of women who need such services. One such way they do this is through education and awarenessraising programs, like “Denim Day in the USA,” a rape prevention campaign.

The origin of Denim Day is a sexual assault that occurred in Italy in 1992.

helped Sharon rebuild her life. Then her Economic Success Counselor helped her to overcome challenges–like poor credit, rental and employment histories–caused by the abuse she endured.

After Jane was raped, she visited the Sexual Assault Nurse Examiner (SANE) Clinic, where she met a specially trained nurse who performed her exam and spoke to an advocate who answered her questions and provided information about follow up counseling.

With over 100 years of experience supporting victims of domestic and sexual violence, The Center is very successful at fulfilling its mission to help women like Carla, Sharon, and Jane become survivors. On February 13, The Center held its annual fundraiser “Celebration of Service & Survival.” Five

Women in the Italian legislature protested by wearing jeans. Today, all around the world, organizations like The Center for Women and Families coordinate community-wide Denim Days to show support and raise awareness about crimes of sexual assault. To participate, simply wear denim on April 23 and let others know why you’re doing so. You can also email The Center at denimday@cwfempower.org for a Denim Day action kit.

The Center for Women and Families offers services free of charge to all survivors of intimate partner abuse or sexual violence. Their clients include men and gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender people in addition to women and dependent children. Help is available 24/7/365 at 502-581-7222.

HOLLY ON THE GO

Spring Fever

A

t the winter solstice, I “took” a gong bath meditation. I liken it to what an ecstatic must feel or to being under the influence of hallucinogens and strongly encourage you to do it at the next opportunity. The solstice marked the certain return to light-filled days that power the jonquils and tulips and the blessed green of Kentucky to thrust through the earth. Time for you to get out of your flannels and get off the couch. March is power month, people, so I dare you to stop reading, stick your tongue out and do your best lion’s “ROARRRRRR” to kick start spring.

March is Women’s History Month, to include International Women’s Day, celebrated here by various groups beginning March 7 at the Muhammad Ali Center from 6–8 p.m. with “Stirring the Fire,” an exhibit praising global women who beat the odds to gain power and justice. On March 8, the Frankfort Avenue Business Association will host events along the corridor to include a panel discussion. On March 12, the first Lean In Circles take place, spurred by local women using Sheryl Sandberg’s book as a reference point to navigate career and family. The Mayor’s office will host a reception March 13 to laud leading local women’s groups, and on March 20, Greater Louisville International Professionals will host an event with women’s business groups to honor International Women’s Day. #girlpower As to a different kind of power, consumer power specifically, the inaugural WesFest, named for director Wes Anderson (Moonrise Kingdom, Rushmore, The Royal Tennenbaums) will blast off March 8 at The New Vintage (the old Uncle Pleasants). A fundraiser for FEVA, Fair Event Vendors Alliance, formed by HayDJ’s Heather Yenawine and Green Lady Flower Studio’s Stephanie Lindsay, WesFest is aimed

at connecting the LGBTQ community with wedding professionals.

Yenawine said the organization vets vendors to alleviate the stress of wondering if a vendor LGBTQ-friendly or not. “If people are having to say, ‘By the way I am LGBTQ,’ and gauge [the vendor’s] response, I thought that was totally unacceptable,” Yenawine said.

“Plus, as a city, we have to be concerned about migration of couples leaving because it [same sex marriage] is not legal. This is the right thing to do.

It makes economic sense and we are creating an LGBTQ web guide with a ‘FEVA approved’ endorsement so that even straight couples who want to support fairness can do that.” What better way to help FEVA bring mainstream vendors to the LGBTQ community than a costume party with Wes Anderson décor from all seven films, top local musicians doing covers (including a David Bowie cover in Portugese) and live dioramas (including me as Angelica Huston)? Doors open at 8 p.m.

I would be remiss not to encourage you to participate in any number of events to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the passage of the 1964 Civil Rights Act. On March 5, from 10 – noon, join others from around Kentucky to “March on Frankfort” and pay homage to the Kentucky Civil Rights Act of 1966.

For my part, the Human Rights section at the Louisville Bar Association will host a seminar March 7 from 10 – 1 at the LBA (6th and Main) with presentations on race discrimination, international right to counsel and equal protection for same sex couples married elsewhere. We encourage nonprofits and students to attend as well as lawyers. Additionally, the annual ACLU/ Fairness dinner is March 22 at the Muhammad Ali Center, which will host myriad events this month to honor the struggle for fairness and equality over the last 50 years.

It’s your time to shine.

UofL Homecoming Queen Has Lasting Legacy Circa 1949

P

ictured above is Debby Dahlem (nee Blair) in 1949 when she was the UofL Homecoming Queen. Debby went on to become one of the first women delegates to the International Council of Shopping Centers, a Kentucky Opera Board Member, and founder of Estate of the Art, an antique jewelry business. She lived a full life that ended on March 30, 2011, after a long and courageous battle with cancer.

“If you knew my Mom, the odds are that she touched your life in a special way,” shares her son Charlie. “I have people tell me all the time that she was one of the most caring and genuine people they had ever known. When she would go for her chemo treatments she always expressed concern about the people who were there taking treatment who did not have the support system that she had.

We have set up the Debby Dahlem Fund at the JGBCC that is administered by the doctors and nurses when they identify people who need assistance such as cab fare to treatment or maybe money for child care. There are many reasons that force people to miss a treatment and this may negatively affect their outcome. If we can alleviate some of their burden with this fund, then my mom is able to continue to care for people and touch their lives.” Charlie and wife, Lisa, will serve as honorary chairs at this year’s The Julep Ball on Derby Eve. The proceeds from The Julep Ball benefit the James Graham Brown Cancer Center.
