Development
Brad
Taylor Joins Delaware Theatre Company
Wilmington, DE –
September 1, 2006 – It
is with great pleasure that Delaware Theatre Company announces the
appointment
of Brad Taylor
as the theatre’s new Director
of Development. Mr. Taylor will be relocating
from Milwaukee, Wisconsin where he
was the founder and president of his own performing arts fundraising
business,
Taylor & Associates. Producing
Director Anne Marie Cammarato says, “After a long, thorough
search, Brad
emerged as a strong candidate. During
his recent interview at Delaware Theatre Company with staff and Board,
his
outstanding communication skills and strategic outlook were
evident. We are confident his strengths will help to
further DTC’s position within the Delaware arts
community.”
As
Founder and President of Taylor & Associates,
Mr. Taylor grew his client base from one to twenty-five clients and
staff of
employees from one to thirty-five associates.
He was responsible for all facets of running the business including
administration, marketing, human resources, recruiting and hiring, and
campaign
development and strategies. In 2004 he
sold his business and served as managing partner of TAYLAR Development.
Board
President R. Thorpe
Moeckel, Managing Principal at Moeckel Carbonell Associates, Inc. says,
"Brad Taylor is an excellent addition to the already outstanding staff
at

am excited about taking on the development
challenges of DTC!” says Brad Taylor.

businesses of Wilmington and see nothing but opportunities that lie in
their
commitment to strengthening the cultural fabric of the community."
