Is Erin Broughton the New Catie Couric?

Resident photographer at Bloomberg (Corporate), Erin Broughton, has a social magnetism that catches the attention of every person she passes on the New York City streets. Originally landed at entry level, she soon advanced to a position in Creative - using her degree in Design from Biola University. Charged with such tasks as portraiture, print design, and film editing - she has a well rounded sense of design and problem solving.

Her photography has allowed her access to people of low and high stature. One day photographing the voice of the MTA - New York transit, and the next she poses with Elton John at the Hot Pink Party (benefit for breast cancer research). These opportunities to exhibit her social grace and glamour COULD be just the beginning.

Broughton has also devoted several hours to local and global charity efforts. You may find her designing a community mural, or lending a hand for an international benefit. Her work ethic is just that - ethical. Weather her future be in media, politics, or something more creative she is sure to get the majority vote!

Is D. H. Swartz the Most Influential Man in Ft. Wayne, Indiana?


As founding Director of W< ("Wunderkammer Company") D. Harrison Swartz is attempting to rebuild the small mid-western town of Fort Wayne Indiana into a dynamic destination to benefit local artists and enhance the community through cultural consideration. My question is, Is it even possible to really put Ft. Wayne, IN on the map? Club Soda (local venue) seems to think so. They were the hosts of a recent event highlighting the work of Audrey Riley, a local graphic artists. CS will be hosting further exhibits in a series this Summer driven by W< to spread the word about Swartz' vision and support local artists.

If you never thought you'd see yourself intentionally visiting any US cities other than Los Angeles, New York, or possibly San Francisco/Chicago - well, I guess we will see if that changes or not.
