DONOR
PROFILE
Carol and Bob Ray
Carol and Bob Ray drive eighty miles to attend
shows at Paper Mill since they moved to Pennsylvania from
New Jersey. They originally lived in the same town as the
actor/director James Brennan, who worked at Paper Mill and
inspired them to become subscribers. As a teacher, Carol
fondly remembers former Associate Artistic Director Patrick
Parker assisting her when she brought her middle school
students to Paper Mill, making them feel welcome. Carol and
Bob donate to Paper Mill because of the thrill of seeing new
works develop and move on to Broadway as well as the
quality of talent on our stages.
