Spotlight on: Anthony Kamani

While the Bride functions with a small staff, our Bride family extends to many more people. From long time patrons, to our board members, volunteers, and community friends there are many people who have contributed to keeping the Bride the vibrant place it has been for 43 years. Periodically we highlight some of those people here on our blog.

Anthony Kamani is one of our house-managers, and also the co-coordinator of the Bridal Salon play reading series. He also happens to be our resident baker, whipping up delicious cakes for each staff members birthday. Get to know him:
