NYC Audubon Welcomes Two New Board Members

We are pleased to announce the election of two new members to our board of directors, Jeffrey Kimball and Fredric Spar. Jeffrey, originally from Northern California, is a New York City-based filmmaker whose time birding in Central Park inspired him to make the HBO documentary, Birders: The Central Park Effect. Fredric, who grew up in Brooklyn, is the managing director of corporate communications consulting firm Kekst and Company. He is also chair of the Charles Rogers Wildlife Refuge in Princeton and on the board of Friends of Princeton Open Space.
