By R.V. Baugus Jack Hagler, ASTC, partner of theatre planner/lighting designer
and IAVM Allied Member Schuler Shook, has always been a trend-set- Joseph J. Anzivino Distinguished Allied Award at VenueConnect in To- ronto from July 22-25, the moment will be marked as groundbreaking the distinction. For his part, Hagler still expressed a “no way” response upon getting the call from IAVM Immediate Past Chairman Mark Mettes, CVE, to say that a new name was ready to be added to the impressive list of award recipients. “When Mark called to tell me I had been named the 2018 recip-
ient of the Joseph J. Anzivino Distinguished Allied Award, I was in disbelief,” Hagler said. “I had NEVER anticipated that I would be considered for this award, much less named a recipient. I was shocked. Receiving this award is the ultimate statement of ‘We appreciate what you do.’”
Indeed, the industry is grateful for all that Hagler does, and for

It ultimately grew to include everything from hu- - thing that touches the performing arts world. Today, all venue sectors had boot camps at the 2017 VenueConnect. The Performing Arts Committee in 1996 invited Hagler to partic-

am so very lucky to have a wonderful group of IAVM friends and col- leagues who have been a great pleasure to work with for many years.” “Jack’s innovative approach to supporting IAVM, and its perform- ing arts sector in particular, is a demonstration of incredible dedication and commitment to our members, our profession and our patrons. Our venues are better today because of Jack’s many contributions,” said Doug Booher, CVE, IAVM Chairman. “Jack Hagler’s passion for the industry and our Association has pos-
