She was brilliant! I had the privilege of attending numerous shows at The Arts Center, recording Bettye Lavette, Chris Hillman, and others there. Tess was so gracious and in front of things, always, and she set a tone that distinguished the venue. Can't imagine what the internal politics really are, but I suspect somebody's made a very poor management decision. I wish her the best of luck!
