I’m delighted to inform you that the
Johns Hopkins Medicine Board of Trustees has three exceptional new members:
James T. Dresher Jr., Arthur B. Modell and Mayo A. Shattuck III.
In addition, the Board has reelected as officers
Chairman Lenox D. Baker, Jr., M.D., and vice chairmen William C. Baker,
Francis X. Knott and Shale D. Stiller, Esq.
Jim Dresher is founder and CEO of Skye Hospitality LLC, a firm that
develops, owns and manages hotels in the Mid-Atlantic region. Skye's
hotel properties are franchised within the Marriott and Hilton Hotel
systems. He also is a partner in Skye Associates, a venture capital
firm that invests in early-stage technology companies. The Bel Air resident
is a founding member of Baltimore's Ronald McDonald House, is co-chair
of the University of Maryland, Baltimore County board of visitors, and
is a former president of the Eastern Area Community Development Corporation.
Best known to Baltimoreans as the man who returned professional football
to their city, former Baltimore Ravens owner Art Modell spent 43 seasons
as owner first of the Cleveland Browns and then of the Ravens. His many
accomplishments during that time – apart from 28 winning seasons
and two championship games – include chairing the negotiations
for the first collective bargaining agreement with the NFL Players Association,
serving on the NFL-AFL Merger Committee, and chairing the League’s
Television Committee from 1962 to 1993, years during which he was instrumental
in developing ABC’s Monday Night Football and negotiating the
League television contracts. He also helped co-found and served as the
first chairman of NFL Films.
Mayo Shattuck is chairman, president and CEO of Constellation Energy
Group, a Fortune 500 company. Prior to joining Constellation Energy,
he was with Deutsche Bank, where he served as chairman of the board
of Deutsche Banc Alex. Brown, CEO of the Private Client and Asset Management
Group, Americas, and, during his tenure, served as Global Head of Investment
Banking and Global Head of Private Banking. He also served as vice chairman
of Bankers Trust Corporation, which merged with Deutsche Bank, and as
president, COO and a director of Alex. Brown Inc., which merged with
Bankers Trust. Currently, he serves as a director of Gap Inc., and of
Capital One Financial Corporation, and is a member of the boards of
Edison Electric Institute, the Nuclear Energy Institute and the Institute
of Nuclear Power Operations, as well as serving on boards and councils
of organizations ranging from the U.S. Ski and Snowboard Team Foundation
to Stanford’s Graduate School of Business, The Walters Art Museum
and the University of Maryland Baltimore County, which awarded him an
honorary Doctor of Public Service degree.
Johns Hopkins Medicine is extraordinarily fortunate to have leaders
of this caliber willing to take the time to work with us on the challenges
and opportunities confronting academic medical centers today.
Sincerely,
Edward D. Miller, M.D.
