Robert Boudreau, founder and conductor of The American Wind Symphony Orchestra, shared memories at daughter Robin Boudreau Palmer birthday party in November, 2010. He talked about founding The American Wind Symphony Orchestra, and building his first Floating Arts Center, with the generous support of Heinz mogul, Jack Heinz. Dad told us that he missed a large party thrown by Mr. Heinz in his honor. Dad had stayed at the Floating Arts Center, to finish painting it with the workers, instead of attending the party to meet Douglas Fairbanks, Paul Getty, and the other famous dignitaries and movie stars, whom Jack Heinz had invited to meet dad. Dad was unaware of the star studded guest list, at the time. He had thought he should stay to complete the work on the boat before the first concert on it the next day.
