Chicago Reunion

When I was in my 20s and living in Spokane, WA, I worked in community theatre. (As did Eve Luppert.) Since I directed several musicals, I struck up a strong phone friendship with Deborah Neupert, who worked in New York City for Music Theatre International, one of the big publishing companies that licenses the production rights of Broadway musicals. Fast forward to my 40s, when that same Deborah Neupert would turn up working for Chiat/Day. Here’s the wonderful note, and photos, I received from Deborah a few weeks ago …


Hi Steve,

Not sure if you remember me..Deborah Neubert, worked for Chiat/Day in Chicago and Los Angeles from 1990 to 1995. Moved back to NYC in 1995 I now live and work in Cleveland, OH. Moved to Cleveland for a job with Highland Talent.

Some of us from the original Chiat/Day office in Oakbrook, IL held a reunion on Sat., June 23rd in Chicago. It is amazing how many people we have been able to track down. Actually, many of them have not left the Chicago area. (why would you?)

Take care.
All the best,
Deborah

Can't believe I found this. I worked in Chicago office of Chiat/Day from 1991 until 1993. I saw these pictures and remembered Mark and Nada, Deborah, Dorcas and Pam.....and Wow, Jennifer Huey. I have been in DC for about 13 years, took the plunge about 5 years ago and went into production and now I am producing. Would love to hear from you guys. That was one of the most exciting professional times of my life, I remember it fondly.

Surprisingly, I found you all while I was doing research on an automotive proposal.

Take Care,
Brian Hegedus - AE '91-'93
