Ilene Fleischmann, vice dean for alumni, public relations and communications in the UB Law School, and executive director of the UB Law Alumni Association, was honored at the Burchfield Penney Art Center’s recent Arts Auction and Gala, along with her husband, Peter Fleischmann, for their enduring commitment to the BPAC.

“Peter and Ilene believe in philanthropy and service to others. They are paramount to the life of the center and have been involved in its strategic growth for more than half of its lifespan,” said Burchfield Penney executive director Anthony Bannon. “Peter has been among the most visible board members since 1985; his integrity and strength of character are hallmarks of his leadership. Ilene’s personality, presence and generous support have been instrumental in all we do. Together, they provide a level of distinction that we applaud and to which we should aspire.”
