1967

Tom Zetterstrom’s exhibit, “Faces of China, 1981: Photographs by Tom Zetterstrom” was featured at the Mansfield Freeman Center for East Asian Studies at Wesleyan University in Middleton, Conn. His photos are a glimpse of China’s people in the third halting year of Deng Xiaoping’s 1979 Reform, before globalization or discos, cell phones or digital media. The photos have not been displayed for 30 years. Tom also received the Sharon H. Ossenbruggen Award for Meritorious Service from the Connecticut Urban Forest Council in 2013. He was recognized for his “tireless efforts to educate and promote positive change regarding trees, plants, and urban forestry.”

Cliff Young, a Denver restaurateur, was featured in a September article in the Denver Business Journal. Cliff is the owner of CY Steak, which serves top cuts of beef and features Las Vegas-style cabaret entertainment.
