Voices of Connection Guest Curator: Bob Lee

Robert E. Lee III, a Voices of Ascension subscriber and donor, describes himself as an enthusiastic autodidact. He confesses to buying more than 10,000 recordings over the years, and before the pandemic shutdown, he was an inveterate concertgoer in New York City’s music scene. During his 30-year career as a money market broker at Tullett Prebon Holdings, Bob lectured widely throughout the U.S. about the Federal Funds market and The Federal Reserve Bank. He joined the Board of Directors of The American Opera Project in 1997, becoming its President in 2001. In 2009, Bob retired as Vice President of Tullett Prebon to take on the additional position of AOP's Managing Director. In 2018 he left AOP to become an independent Arts Management consultant. Bob also served on the Board of the New York Innovative Theatre Foundation from 2004 to 2014.
