Info | I am President of Reece Communications, founded in 1988 to develop cable television in the USSR and Eastern Europe, Founding Chair and CEO of Polska Telewizja Kablowa, the largest cable TV company in Poland, and Chairman Emeritus of Kane Reece Associates, a global appraisal and consulting firm for media and financial companies. I served on White House Conferences on Small Business, Economic Development, and Business Opportunities in Eastern Europe under Presidents Jimmy Carter and George H.W. Bush. I am former Secretary of Commerce in Pennsylvania and was a candidate for the U.S Senate in the PA Democratic Primary.
As a political activist in the ‘60s for civil rights and against the Vietnam War, I marched with Martin Luther King Jr. in Alabama, met with King regarding plans for his campaign for economic justice, organized and ran political campaigns locally and nationally, and was a senior aide to Senator Eugene McCarthy in his campaign for President in 1968.
A member of Newtown Friends Meeting (PA), I have served as Meeting Clerk, Financial Oversight Clerk, and on the Newtown Friends School Committee. Past service on boards includes Vice-Chair of the American Friends Service Committee, Founding Board member of C-SPAN, Friends World College, and Village Charter School (Trenton, NJ). Current boards/committees include: Friends Fiduciary Corporation, Corporation of Haverford College, Earlham School of Religion, Quaker Quest of Philadelphia Yearly Meeting, and the David Library of the American Revolution.
