m - s e o g t e l s o 5 Which famous women got their start in Fort Wayne? Here are two. Meet Zuzanna and Jill.

By Drema Drudge, Feature Writer Fort Wayne has had more than its share of actresses and women in the media. The list includes the legendary Carole Lombard, Marilyn Maxwell, Dr. Nancy Snyderman, Shelley Long, Zuzanna Szadkowski, and of course Jill Bennett who have called Fort Wayne home. Recently, I spoke to the latter two via email about their Fort Wayne upbringing.

Zuzanna Szadkowski aged by my friends and the is best known for her role on as Dorota Kishlovsky local community. It was a in the CW series “Gossip Girl.” She also appeared really warm environment.” on “The Sopranos,” “Law & Order: Criminal She still has the award: Intent,” “Guiding Light” and was voted No. 7 in “I have the plaque on my shelf.” Rolling Stone’s “50 Reasons to Watch TV.” Of all of the things she misses Of her time in Fort Wayne, Szadkowski said, “I about Fort Wayne she said, “I moved to Fort Wayne from Warsaw, Poland, via miss the Johnny Appleseed Syracuse, N.Y., when I was 3. My father got a job Festival. My most intense experi - at Indiana Tech. The Midwest was an adventure ences in the Fort were as a for us, an unknown.” teenager. I remember Snider Szadkowski’s schooling in Fort Wayne affected football games and a lot of hanging her career choice. “My love of theater and acting out at Glenbrook Mall. I always think was born from my experiences in school plays, of the big Santa downtown during both at Blackhawk Middle and Snider High. I the holidays. learned a great deal and had tremendous acting experiences working at the Civic Arena Dinner Although she seldom gets a chance to Theater and at IPFW. There are incredibly talent - return to Fort Wayne, there are favorite ed and inspired artists working in Fort Wayne. places of hers she makes sure not to miss visiting when Director Greg Stieber was a major influence.” she does get to town: “Recently I came back for a cou - ple of days. I immediately went to Casa for the salad Voted “Most Likely to be Famous” her senior and to Henry's for drinks with old friends.” year, Szadkowski said of acting, “I knew I would When asked what she’s doing now, she said “I am cur - pursue this career from my first moment rently working on a new series to be released in the fall onstage. It was almost like a happy curse. I get on Cinemax called “The Knick.” It is directed by Steven a kick out of having won that distinction at Snider. I certainly felt encour - Soderbergh and stars Clive Owen.”

Jill Bennett also has fond memories of her Fort Wayne upbring - ing, and attributes her success in part to it: “Being a Midwesterner instills a strong work ethic. We're also not flaky people. I hate to stereotype, but people from the West coast tend to have a problem with that issue, whether it be career related, or personal. If I say I'm going to do something, I do it. I have follow through - again, a Midwestern trait.”

She tries to visit “home” once a year, and when she does, After Dark or Columbia Street are locations where she can likely be found. Fond memories of The Three Rivers Festival and the Johnny Appleseed Festival linger: “Both were highlights of my year! I also remember how amazing the fireworks were from the Coliseum on the 4th of July!”

Bennett has her own production company, Bent Path Productions. “Right now, I'm working on two new half hour comedies and two feature films - one is about the golden age of Hollywood, and the other is buddy road movie. I recently completed three full episodes of a sitcom called ‘Second Shot,’ which can be seen at www.SecondShot.tv.” Bennett created, produced, wrote and starred in them.

Bennett welcomes contact from fans: “…I'm always open to social interaction!”

She’s on Twitter, Facebook, YouTube, and has a website: www.jillbennett.com.

Perhaps there’s something in the water, or perhaps there’s just something about the Midwestern work ethic that Bennett alluded to, but Fort Wayne has been home to many talented women, of which these two are standouts. I

Irish music is alive and well in Fort Wayne, with multiple locations keeping the catchy music within the public’s earshot. The second Monday of every month J.K. O’Donnell’s offers an open trad jam session from 7 p.m. - 10 p.m. An Irish trad session is one in which musicians gather to play traditional music. From six to a dozen musi - cians play the mandolin, hammer dulcimer, penny whistle, fiddle, flute, bodhran and uilleann bagpipes at J.K. O’Donnell’s sessions.

Those who play Irish music are passionate about it. “Irish music is deeply ingrained into Irish society; you can trace records back as early as 921 BC. The music has deep folk and traditional roots and you can see definite uses to convey political messages or to unite people to the cause via songs in most pubs,” says Irish musician Janet Bamford.

The Fort Wayne Traditional Music and Dance Society will hold its next Traditional Celtic Session the Saturday after St. Patrick’s Day, March 22. The jams are held every fourth Saturday and are led by Bill Reeder. They consist mostly of instrumental Irish music. Participants are encouraged to bring a fiddle, pipe, whistle, bodhran, banjo, harp, squeezebox, guitar or bouzouki. All jams are held at Firehouse Tea and Coffee Café, 1245 E. State Blvd., Fort Wayne, from 2 to 4:30 pm. The public is invited to attend and partic - ipate.

With its unique shops and hidden gems, it’s ideal for a weekend of shopping, dining and browsing.

138 W. First St. • Downtown Roanoke (260) 519-2278 Katy Watson, owner of Katharos Art and Gift, and her husband, Chris Bailey, are so devoted to the town that they live above their shop. Retailers are a real part of the community. “The merchants get togeth - er and plan shopping and community events. I’m in charge of the Style and Charm fashion and accessory event May 3, which I'm very excited about.”

The town is just the right size for Watson. “There are enough people to do great things but it's small enough for one person to make a differ - ence. For people who want to support local businesses, local artists and find items made in America, Roanoke is a great place to shop.”

Shive said, “It’s a town that is friendly, so safe, with good parking.” But that doesn’t mean you can’t find what you would in larger places. “You can get a facial, work out, a massage…”

The historic downtown was revitalized in the 1990’s. Shops continue to open, with one newly open and another about to make its debut. With fine dining as well as casual eating establishments, to an old fash - ioned barber shop, art galleries, antique shops and a new winery just down the road, Roanoke has it all.

A 25-acre park in the town’s center is another reason to visit this delightful town. The park sports soccer fields, tennis courts, a basket - ball court, two baseball diamonds, a playground and a pavilion.

The arts are well represented in Roanoke. In 2008, the Roanoke Arts Council was founded and sponsors annual events such as A Renaissance in Roanoke and the Plein Air Art Competition.

According to Shive, there are special events in the town nearly every month. The farmer’s market, held on Saturdays during the summer, brings vendors hawking all sorts of crafts, baked goods and of course produce. Other events include the Roanoke Fall Festival the weekend after Labor Day, the Discover Roanoke 10K/5K in April, a Pops Concert July 3, and The Taste of Roanoke the third Saturday in August to name just a few. So with all of this within a short driving distance, Roanoke is an easy choice for a weekend (or a week day) of fun. I

Art for your home, Changing My Channel gifts, and jewelry. By Julie Young, Feature Writer It’s official. I am getting older. There is no other way to ration- alize the strange phenomenon that has altered my television viewing practices of late. One night, I went to bed hopped up on 30-minute sitcoms and the occasional reality train wreck and the next day, I woke up with an inexplicable desire to watch hour-long, commercial- free shows heavily laced with British accents. Tree of Life Art Gallery There is only one logical explanation for this: I’ve reached some mystical age when PBS suddenly becomes cool.

If PBS couldn’t We will be happy to serve you! hang on the same dial as ABC, CBS, NBC and the local independent outfit, I didn’t need to tune in. (Lest you think I am biased, I had the same opinion of the religious affiliate that showed a block of Tennessee Tuxedo cartoons in the afternoon before starting their daily Lester Sumrall marathon.) I spent the better part of my life believing that PBS was for old people like my father who routinely pre-empted my Saturday morn- ing cartoons to watch “This Old House,” “The New Yankee Workshop” and “The Woodwright Shop.” He had a special affection for PBS staples such as “Cosmos” and “Nova” not to mention every in-depth study of the Number Seven the network could come up with. He even went so far as to donate money during Pledge Week. In my young opinion, Pledge Week was proof positive that PBS was a ruse. Let’s face it, the only time PBS broadcast anything worthwhile was during Pledge Week. For seven days, the network offered programs never seen throughout the year while talking heads at the phone banks begged for money and promised more high-qual- ity programming like the show one was currently watching. They may have guilted my father into making a donation with their plea, but they weren’t fooling me! I knew that when the lights went out and the phone lines closed, they packed up their Suze Orman lec- tures and Ed Sullivan retrospectives, leaving with the same shows we had before. This makes the current turn of events even more disconcerting. Either I’m getting older, PBS programming suddenly resonates with me or they finally got that windfall they were looking for because the lineup has radically improved.

The initiative focuses on teaching parents and caregivers how to interact and talk to their children. Instead of “plugging in” to their phones and computers, parents are encouraged to talk to and ask questions to their children. Packages are given to new parents before they leave Parkview Health’s birthing centers to help them get started. For additional text message tips, parents can text Talk2Baby to the 99000. The program will continue to offer age appropriate materials for families as their children get older. The Let’s Talk program fits right in with PNC’s Grow Up Great pro - gram. The Grow Up Great program focuses on helping children from birth to age 5 grow and develop. Research shows this is a critical time period for children to learn the skills they need to be successful in kindergarten all the way into their adult lives. Through their pro - gram, PNC has funneled more than half a million dollars into non- profits serving children in Allen County. Along with that, employees are encouraged to volunteer with these programs to provide children with the additional help that they need. “I’d venture to say PNC has more employees volunteering in Allen County than any other company,” said Huston. “I know because I Huston (lower right hand corner) visits with kids at the Pathfinders Kids Kampus. track the hours we’re investing.

In the small town of Bluffton, it’s a woman who calls the law enforcement shots. Police Chief Tammy Schaffer went to school for cosmetology, even styled hair for a while, but when the police commissioner came in for his usual haircut one day, he asked her if she had ever considered joining the police force. It’s a career the chief does not take lightly. “Every time you help someone, you remember why you chose this profession,” adds Schaffer. “I tell my officers that you never know how much of a difference you make in someone’s life and you may never know.” In her 11th year as chief of police, Schaffer walks the talk. “I suppose my influence is from a distance,” says Schaffer. “Every public appearance that I make is an opportunity for a young woman to know that she could be a police offi - cer or a leader in her community. The way one woman in a uniform is per - ceived is the way that all women in uniform are perceived.”

Working in the banking industry for 33 years provided Greg Smitley, CEO of the Better Business Bureau of Northern Indiana, with a good foundation of serving people. That experience also provided an understand - ing of integrity and trust. His mentor early in his career was Jay Powell, president of Anthony Wayne Bank. But, much of his inspiration came from three women: his wife, Patricia, of 35 years, and his daughters, Lara and Lisa. “They inspired me to be the best husband and father I could be,” says Greg. Greg adds that he has had the pleasure of mentoring many young women over the years, many who have gone on to become successful bankers. “And, I am proud of every one of them.” Greg’s personal goal is to help the BBB expand its reach from 23 counties in northern Indiana and continue build on its good reputation.
