Business Manager

Mary Arthur

Mary Arthur has served as the Symphonic Band’s Business Manager and Executive Secretary since 1976. She brings to her work with the Band a background as a church secretary and volunteer, along with a love of music and community bands that began as a young person listening to and eventually performing with the American Legion Band in her home town of Oconomowoc WI. (It is no coincidence that that venerable organization was founded and managed by her uncle, Arthur Rhodee, and is currently managed by her first cousin, Ken Rhodee.)

Mary has been the Band’s piccolo player since its reorganization in 1974. She studied flute with Eldrich Meyer at the Wisconsin Conservatory in Milwaukee and Donald Berglund at St. Olaf College, and earned an Associate of Arts degree at UW-Fond du Lac.

Mary became the office manager, bookkeeper, and computer specialist for her husband’s municipal/civil engineering firm, J. E. Arthur and Associates, in 1982. The company’s spacious facilities on Prairie Road have also served the Band’s various office and storage needs since Mary’s appointment as Manager.

The Arthurs have raised two daughters and currently enjoy spending time with a bevy of growing grandchildren! A self-professed computer nut, Mary does all of the Band’s desktop publishing layouts and promotional literature as part of her management duties.
