Livermore Shakes Grows Board of Directors

Livermore Shakes announced new board member Alexis Miller who will represent a growing sector of the audience.

From Livermore Shakes: Livermore Shakespeare Festival, producers of the Shakespeare in the Vineyard program at Wente Vineyards and So Wise So Young, an in–school early literacy program in all of Livermore’s public elementary schools, announced the addition of Alexis Miller to their board of directors. Miller recently relocated to Livermore from San Francisco and practices law at Trutner Law Offices in downtown Livermore. Miller is a member of the Alameda County Bar Association and the East Bay Trust and Estate Lawyers Association. Miller has previous experience in development with the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art and in New York City with Harlem RBI, a youth development organization. “We are thrilled to have Alexis on the team” says Board Chair, Laura Batti. “Alexis represents a growing sector of our audience. Her experience in non-profit development and perspective as a Millennial lend support to two of our major areas of focus.”


“LSF’s Board of Directors is a natural fit for me as I have enjoyed attending the shows at Wente Vineyards and am passionate about cultivating the arts in my new community” states Miller. “My generation values the arts and unique experiences that enhance our quality of life. Livermore Shakespeare Festival’s contributions to the Livermore community definitely impacted my decision to move to Livermore. There isn’t anything like this in the Greater Bay Area.”
