Fordham Law alumnus Paul Washington ’95 was mentioned in an article in Hudson Valley One announcing his position as the new president of the Woodstock Byrdcliffe Guild, a regional center for the arts in Woodstock, New York.
New Woodstock Byrdcliffe Guild president Paul Washington remembers well what it was like to grow up at the end of Library Lane in the 1960s and 1970s, when his father Jerry worked at IBM and the town’s mix of old families and struggling artists, arriviste musicians and sophisticated weekenders made his home town a great place to explore on his bike.
“Schneiders drug store was still on the corner where you could get penny candies and Hershey kisses were a half cent a piece,” said the Onteora grad who went on to Yale undergrad, a Fordham law degree, and a smart career in law, banking and governance topped by his current position as Senior Vice President, Deputy General Counsel and Corporate Secretary of Time Warner Inc.
