Pullman & Comley hosts Hartford Symphony

The Women’s Leadership Initiative at the law firm of Pullman & Comley LLC hosted a lunchtime discussion with Carolyn Kuan, music director of the Hartford Symphony Orchestra, and guest conductor Alexandra Arrieche recently at The Hartford Club. Arrieche, whose one week appearance as guest conductor is sponsored by Pullman & Comley, spoke of the challenges she faced as a female conductor in Brazil and how she overcame the stigma of being a woman in a male-dominated profession by “always being well-prepared.” Pictured are, from left, Arrieche; Diane Whitney, partner, Pullman & Comley, LLC; and Kuan.
