2007 Golden Door Dinner | May 30
Moakley Courthouse, Boston
 The International Institute of Boston is proud to honor conductor, educator, and now Bostonian Benjamin Zander, who was born and raised in England following his parents’ escape from Germany. A protégé of Benjamin Britten, Maestro Zander later trained in Italy with the great cellist Gaspar Cassadó. He took his degrees at the University College, London, and came to America on a Harkness International Fellowship in 1964.
Over the course of his distinguished and multifaceted career, he has been associated with New England Conservatory, the Youth Philharmonic, Walnut Hill School for the Performing Arts, the Youth Orchestra of the Americas, and the NPR program From the Top. He has been the conductor of the Boston Philharmonic Orchestra since its founding in 1979 and travels the world as a guest conductor and presenter on leadership to major organizations. He is the co-author, with leading psychotherapist Rosamund Zander, of The Art of Possibility, a bestselling transformational book published by the Harvard Business School Press and available in 17 languages. In October 2006 Benjamin Zander became an American citizen at the John J. Moakley Courthouse in Boston – the site of this year’s Golden Door Award dinner and event.
