Rebecca Myles: Fundraising professional with 18 years experience working on capital campaigns, solicitations of major donors, special events, membership programs, prospect research and database management.  Worked for prestigious arts and education institutions such as Cambridge University, Horace Mann School, Royal Court Theatre, Pacifica Radio and now, Dance Parade.
She is delighted to use her talents and skills to help Dance Parade flourish into what it will surely become an international presenter of dance performance that will wind its way through the streets of New York, the jiedao of Beijing, the boulevards of Paris, to even dance in the future in Tahrir Square, Eqypt.  When Rebecca is not fundraising she is a radio reporter and producer.

Jeffrey Zeth is a licensed social worker doing case management for a Managed Care company.  A native of Center Port in Suffolk County, Jeff came to New York 22 years ago where he got his Masters in social work from NYU.  He has published several articles for academic and the general public on men’s issues, addiction and spirituality.    Most recently he is applying his writing skills to assist Dance Parade with writing grants.  He also enjoys Brazilian music and playing guitar and percussion to Bosa Nova rhythms.  Jeff’s dream of a better world is where people can be who they are without class, race or gender differences.  “Dance Parade is a way that does that—It brings together many people from different cultures and dance styles in the same place!”
