2021 Annual Meeting and Christmas Luncheon
Our Annual Meeting and Christmas Luncheon in 2021 was held at the St. John Armenian Church conference center and was well attended. C. Hedger Breed III, BCD vice-president, was our guest speaker. He spoke about his 25 years in the book business and explained what it takes to succeed in buying and selling books and related materials. Many members donated to the silent auction which was a good fundraiser. Members had the opportunity to tour the Alex and Marie Manoogian Museum which houses the largest collection of Armenian art, books, metalwork and other artifacts outside of Armenia. Museum Director, Lucy Ardash, led the tour. Thank you to all at St. John and to board member, Alice Nigoghosian who coordinated the event.
C. Hedger Breed III has been an very active member of BCD for a long time and has served as president. He is currently vice-president.
