Deanne Landress has just completed a 10-year stint building and selling an internet cafe in Maplewood, NJ. Prior to that she was involved with finance, primarily trading mortgages (or anything that ‘rolls, floats, or flies!). Earlier in her career she was in politics, as a lobbyist for DC-37, AFSCME, running campaigns and working in Albany. Her duties for the union included organizing community groups of union members in neighborhoods ranging from Harlem to Co-op City, Far Rockaways to East New York. She attended Vassar, ’78 and Stanford GSB, ’82.
