Matt Rosendahl was elected Vice President of the Board of Directors. Matt is the Library Director of the Kathryn A. Martin Library at the University of Minnesota Duluth and has served as a board member for the past 5 years. He co-founded the Lake Superior Libraries Symposium and is a member of the Duluth Public Library Board.

Douglas Bremer
Doug is a Commercial Loan Officer at Members Cooperative Credit Union and has called Duluth home for more than two decades. He is an active member of the local community and has enjoyed serving on the boards of several local business and community organizations. Doug’s father was a career librarian, and his mother was an educator, so the library was an integral part of his upbringing. Doug lives in Duluth with his wife, their three children, and their two Old English Sheepdogs. His interests include linguistics, poetry, and plant care. He also enjoys martial arts, mountain biking, and traveling with his family as much as possible.
Craig Chilcote
Craig is a licensed CPA and the managing partner for Anderson Kuiti & Asuma PLLC. Craig claims reading is something he couldn’t live without. He reads 4-6 books a month and has subscriptions to over 9 business publications. Away from work, you will find Craig relaxing at the cabin with his wife, Kerri, and daughter, Gwen along with their cat, Sugar, and golden doodle, Ruby.
Greg Fox
Greg was lucky enough to live near the beautiful West Duluth Library and went there to study and meet friends several times a week when he was in school. After graduating from Denfeld High School he attended the University of Minnesota Duluth and later did graduate work at the University of Washington. He returned to UMD in 1974 and began a 38-year career first as the assistant director of Continuing Education and Extension and later as the Vice-Chancellor of Finance and Operations. He has been active in the community and served as chair of the DECC board, the Chamber of Commerce, and the Goodwill Industries board, and he has co-chaired the United Way annual campaign and the Damiano Center facilities campaign. He has been married for more than 50 years to Sheila. They have two children and four grandchildren. Each week they are at Laura MacArthur Elementary School working on reading with first graders.
Carla Powers, Library Manager, serves as a Member Ex Officio. Erin Kreeger is the Executive Director of the Foundation.
The Foundation regretfully acknowledges the departure of board members Amy Kuronen and Gerri Williams.
