Salk Gala 2010 Synthesizes Science, Symphony and the Incomparable Liza Minnelli

(followed by The Buzz!!)

The Symphony at Salk Gala hit all the right notes and then some. The one and only Liza Minnelli was the starring guest artist this year, ensuring that this fundraiser would sell out .... and it did! Liza is not just a triple threat of talent being able to sing, dance and act, but she also proved to be quite instrumental in scientific fundraising by agreeing to perform on August 28th, 2010, therefore justifying that she is in fact a quadruple threat of talent!

The evening started as hundreds of guests gathered for cocktails first at the Salk Institute of Biological Studies.

Irwin and Joan Jacobs

Among the many there were Salk's Irwin M. Jacobs Presidential Chair William Brody, Joan and Irwin Jacobs (Irwin's the Chairman of the Salk's Board of Trustees), David C. Copley, Judith Harris, Sheri and Stuart Jamieson, EJ and Natasha Johnson, Claire Reiss, Ann and Ian Campbell, Valerie and Harry Cooper, Iris and Matt Strauss, Marsha and Bill Chandler (Marsha's the COO of Salk), Sheryl and Harvey White, and Pat and Bob Whalen.

Bob Whalen didn't get the memo that it wasn't black tie, but he had a good laugh and a good time about being uniquely in a tuxedo. Looking dapper as so!

The evening continued with a fancy box supper by Jeffrey Strauss, and an incredible performance by the San Diego Symphony led by Guest Conductor Thomas Wilkins. Wilkins is the Music Director for the Omaha Symphony and a Principal Guest Conductor of the Hollywood Bowl Orchestra.

Then it was time for the one and only Liza. Wonderful..... !!

All for a great cause as noted by William Brody. "Proceeds from Symphony at Salk benefit our research efforts, providing our scientists with the operating flexibility to explore some of their most creative ideas in the lab."
