At our spring benefit Speakeasy Casino Night, patrons will be gambling with Baker Bucks. Featured on the $20 bill is Dana Paul Baker. Born August 17, 1950, in Cumberland, he was the son of Paul Baker and Aretta Sue (Swayne) Warhaft, and half-brother to Mark Baker. After serving in Germany during the Vietnam War, Dana graduated from Temple University. After a stint doing technical theatre at Mountain Playhouse, he worked as an engineer, software programmer and project manager for a variety of venues. Dana served as the President of the board for the Embassy from 2009 through 2012. He brought his project management skills to bear on a reorganization of our business, and was responsible for the inauguration of the formal positions of Executive Director and Artistic Director. He enjoyed retirement as a film and theater technician for the ArtsQuest SteelStacks in Bethlehem, PA. Our Speakeasy Casino Night takes place on Saturday, March 28, and will be hosted by Mayor Ray Morriss.
