The Benjamin Marshall Society was founded by Jane and Didier Lepauw in 2002. The Board of Directors are Jane Lepauw, Didier Lepauw, Dorothy Ehrhard (grand-daughter of Benjamin Marshall) Mary N. Riley, Acting Secretary William McCluskey, and Treasurer Carolyn Selke, great grandaughter of Benjamin Marshall.
Read the full article. The Society's aim: Raise enough money to mount a Chicago exhibit of Marshall's works and catalogue his archives, which improbably reside at the University of Texas. At first glance, Marshall seems an odd figure to celebrate. His high-living, Jay Gatsby ways are out of sync with the grim realities of today's economy.
The Benjamin Marshall Society toasted summers end with a glittering soiree at 999 N. Lake Shore Drive in August of 2019. Built in 1912, the elegant and iconic Marshall designed building was the ideal backdrop for an evening that even Benny himself would be proud of. The evening was a spectacular success as we celebrated in style, Cinco de Mayo a la Ben Marshall.
