Annual Report by James P A Message from the Board Board of Annual Report by James P. Harris, 2016-2017 Chair Governors 2015-2016 The Chesapeake Bay Maritime Museum’s new 2015-2016 fiscal year is off to a great start. Let me pause Richard C. Tilghman, Jr., Chair to thank Richard Tilghman, who served as Henry H. Stansbury, Vice Chair chairman for the past two years. During that James P. Harris, Treasurer time, we’ve seen enthusiasm for CBMM Richard J. Bodorff,Secretary Diane J. Staley, Officer-At-Large grow tremendously with Kristen Greenaway at the helm. Richard’s lasting contribution is the Schuyler Benson skillful mentoring of our new president as she Paul Berry assumed her role at a pivotal time in CBMM’s Harry W. Burton William B. Carter 50-year history. William S. Dudley One cannot miss the heightened activity on David E. Dunn campus over the past two years. Much-needed Dagmar D. P. Gipe Leeds Hackett painting and facilities refurbishment have made E. Brooke Harwood, Jr. CBMM sparkle, with a prioritized list of Christopher A. Havener improvements still to be addressed. We celebrated our 50th anniversary last May, have Robert N. Hockaday, Jr. Francis Hopkinson, Jr. rolled out new exhibitions, and begun restoration of the historic Edna E. Lockwood. Fred Israel Approved in early 2014, the Strategic Plan has charted our course and continues to Richard J. Johnson provide a strong foundation to secure CBMM’s future. New emphasis has been placed on Peter M. Kreindler Deborah Lawrence revenue enhancements. This, coupled with vigilance regarding expenses, resulted Elizabeth S. Loker in the seventh straight year of positive operating results in FY15–16. Our operating Frank C. Marshall fund’s cumulative account is now positive, resulting in a stronger endowment and the Patrice Miller establishment of operating reserves. Geoffrey F. Oxnam Bruce A. Ragsdale As we look to the future, CBMM is focused on selective capital investments and grow- Charles A. Robertson ing our endowment. We must fully fund the exciting restoration of Edna, creating the Bruce Rogers same kind of “buzz” and appeal as Rosie Parks’ restoration did. Several important building Steven S. Sands Lelde Schmitz investment projects are being considered that could help make a visit to CBMM more Richard W. Snowdon meaningful; moving forward, of course, is contingent on successful fundraising. We must Alfred Tyler, 2nd also double the size of CBMM’s endowment. While traditional fundraising is one way Carolyn H. Williams to do this, a new emphasis is being placed on planned giving to encourage including EMERITI CBMM in a family’s estate plan. Look for more information about how we will implement this new program. Richard T. Allen CG Appleby One of the most exciting areas of growth is the commitment to educating our Howard S. Freedlander youth. As noted in the Strategic Plan: “…the museum creates experiences that physically, Alan R. Griffith intellectually and emotionally connect visitors to the Chesapeake Bay.” Annually, 3,500 Margaret D. Keller Breene M. Kerr students visit CBMM as part of their K–12 school programs. They learn about the Richard H. Kimberly economics of the crabbing industry, the ecology of the Bay, wooden boatbuilding, and Charles L. Lea, Jr. how to preserve the rich heritage of the Bay. We seek to expand our impact by doubling D. Ted Lewers, MD this to 7,000 students and have invested in curriculum improvement and outreach to other Fred C. Meendsen John C. North II school districts. CBMM has partnered with the YMCA of the Chesapeake to launch the Sumner Parker Rising Tide After-School Program, which provides middle school students in Talbot County Robert A. Perkins the opportunity to learn woodworking and boatbuilding. These students also have the Joseph E. Peters James K. Peterson opportunity for real on-the-water experiences. Expanded education programming is fun- Norman H. Plummer damental to securing CBMM’s future and fulfilling our mission. None of this would be John J. Roberts possible without your support. On behalf of Henry H. Spire James E. Thomas our board and staff, let me thank you—whether you Joan Darby West are members, sponsors, donors, and/or volunteers— Donald G. Whitcomb for being such an important part of CBMM’s impact on our guests, students, and community. 28 ANNUAL REPORT, 2015-2016 ANNUAL REPORT, 2015-2016 29 Commander Susan & Robert Hillenbrand Susan Walker Linda & John Derrick ($500 to $999) Elizabeth & Thomas Hipp Sara & Myron Walker Bethany & Laurence Driggs Chesapeake Bay Maritime Museum’s Tracy & John Hockmeyer Buck Waller & Michael Hash Alice & David Dunham Joanne & Peter Ackerman Laura & Keith Hoffman Laura & Richard Ward Peggy & Frank Emmet Lucy Alexander Jacqueline Smith & Jerry Hook Lily & John Waterston Vera & John England Linda Passantino & Drew Alloway Gail & Jerry Howell Irmy & Phil Webster Lynn & Wilson Everhart HONOR ROLL OF DONORS Molly & Peirce Anderson Kathleen & Howard Hughes Charlotte & George West P.F.N.

  • Many Years Ago Al Jaffee Came in with a Piece That Used
    I Ma ha! wa anI thE SUI thl ilf "Many years ago Al Jaffee n C came in with a piece that h' used the word 'schmuck: and there was a big debate about whether the magazine should include that word. Today it would be nothing. rr 072 Desmond Devlin, who has contributed to Mad since 1984, agrees. "Culturally, Mad's impact has been immense, especially back when it was the foremost one-stop source of mockery and criticism;' he says."Mad synthesized the nagging doubts that millions of Americans had about their society, and it demonstrated that iconoclasm would sell to a mass audience. Readers had their suspicions confirmed, and were introduced to new suspicions. "It isn't as if presidents had never betrayed their oaths before, and it isn't as if advertising suddenly got amoral in 1955;' Devlin adds. "But the package Mad has put out, and the attitude it promoted, has long since become a norm:' Mad entered this world in 1952 as a comic book. conceived, written and edited by Harvey Kurtzman and published by ECComics. The first few issues of Mad satirized the era's most popular comic books and comic strips, then Kurtzman started expanding his focus to include other aspects of popular culture, such as supermarkets, restaurant dining, motion pictures and television. Kurtzman delighted in experimenting with style and design, especially on Mad's covers. The cover for issue 19, for example, looks just like a horse-racing form, while the cover of issue 20 is an exact replica of a black composition notebook.
