When The Sun created its Maryland Business and
Civic Hall of Fame in 2016, it set out to honor those who
have made profound contributions to our area in a wide
variety of ways. But choosing the most deserving among
the many civic and business leaders in the region is no
easy task. To help ensure a broad pool of potential nominees each year, we seek the assistance of our readers and
a panel of community leaders.
This year’s selection committee, like last year’s, was
entirely made up of previous Hall of Fame inductees:
philanthropist and former Baltimore Symphony Orchestra chair Barbara Bozzuto; law professor Larry Gibson;
Brown Advisory President and CEO Mike Hankin;
retired pastor of Union Baptist Church Alvin C. Hathaway Sr.; public relations executive Sandy Hillman;
UMBC President Freeman Hrabowski; and corporate
board director Patricia “P.J.” Mitchell.
The group offered suggestions for nominees earlier
this year, which The Sun considered, along with recommendations solicited from the public and others, to make
the final selection.
We deeply appreciate their time and thoughtfulness
in helping ensure that we compile the strongest possible
2022 class of inductees.
