    Mary Byrd, Chair of the Board of Trustees, announced the museum officially changed its name to Fine Art Museum of Sedona (FAMoS) as it is a more accurate representation of the mission and vision for the museum. “The purpose of a fine art museum in Sedona is to encourage discovery and inspiration by awakening the imagination through thought-provoking fine art, workshops, and other programs,” explains Byrd.

    “Robin brings to our board a fine legal and entrepreneurial back-ground.  She is a forward thinker who realizes the positive impact an art museum will have on the community,” said Byrd.

    Garman received her J.D. from the University of Miami School of Law, and her LL.M Corporate Law from New York University School of Law. She began her career as a compliance officer for the American Stock Exchange, becoming Associate General Counsel for Shearson Loeb Rhoades from 1980 to 1983.  For the next 14 years, she served as Vice President of Lehman Brothers.

    Robin operated a solo general law practice for three years before returning to New York as Chief Operating Officer and General Counsel of Eagle Rock Capital Management.  She moved to Sedona in 2015.

    The Sad Lesson of Tyre Nichols
    By Tommy Acosta
    Having grown up in the mean streets of the Bronx there is one lesson we learn early on, and that’s don’t mess with the cops when they got you down, and outnumbered. The beating of Tyre Nichols at the hands of the police preceding his death at the hospital could have been avoided if only he had the sense to not resist them. People fail to understand that on the streets, cops are basically “God.” You can’t fight them. If it takes one, two, five, ten or twenty officers they will eventually put you down and hurt you if they have to in the process of detaining or arresting you. In the Bronx we would fight amongst ourselves but when the cops came it was “Yes, officer. No, officer,” and do our best to look as innocent as possible. People need to understand that cops on the street represent the full power of the state and government. Read more→
