Over his two decades as a justice, he wrote more \n than 400 majority opinions \n • Dino DeConcini, born in Tucson, has been a passionate advocate for the law \n and the arts, serving as the second Chairman of the Arizona Commission on the \n Arts and a founder of what is today Arizona Citizens for the Arts, which produces \n the annual Governor’s Arts Awards. He also was among ATC’s co-founders and \n served on the founding board. \n • Carol DuVal Whiteman has enjoyed a life-long love of the arts and is herself a \n published poet, playwright and arts philanthropist. In addition to serving on \n ATC’s founding board, she has been a member of the Phoenix Arts Commission \n and, like DeConcini, has received a Governor’s Arts Award. \n For more information, visit www.arizonatheatre.org. \n -30- \n Contact: \n Steve Carr, The Kur Carr Group, Inc., (602) 317-3040","bbox":{"left":0.117686,"top":0.089112,"width":0.764164,"height":0.607758}},{"text":"About Arizona Theatre Company: \n Arizona Theatre Company (ATC) is the preeminent fully professional theatre company in the \n State of Arizona, committed to inspiring, engaging, and entertaining - one moment, one \n production, and one audience at a time.
