    Why a person with a background like mine is involved in a modern dance thing: ODC is quite a different arts organization. As you might know, many arts organizations, even the largest and most prestigious, are having enormous funding challenges and live on the brink of bankruptcy.

    ODC is a 40-year dance organization with a model that I believe can transform and modernize how arts organizations support themselves in the future.
