My annual fashion statement. This is the attire worn at the Wing Spread banquet, Racine, Wisconsin sometimes in 1987 or 88. My plan was to make a statement about the strategy offered at the conference concerning rural economic development. It turns out my statement wasn't remembered but my outfit was. In 1989 while the Ohio Community Development Finance Fund was looking for its first Director two of the board members reported sitting next to an obviously demented individual that might be interested in moving east. I started work for what now is Finance Fund on September 1, 1989 and the rest is history. I wear the outfit each year to remember G-d's sense of humor.
