Sue Cook

Volunteer Programs Manager

Sue was born and raised in SF Bay Area.  Coming from a Celtic family with a long tradition of amateur thespians, certifiable hams, and fabulous cooks, Sue has always been noted for her improvisational humor and her love of the culinary arts.   These tendencies showed themselves in her early career as one of the founders and co-producers of, The Moveable Feast, the first ever Gourmet Food & Wine Show.  Leaving that arena in the 1980's, she relocated to the Napa Valley with her three children and life partner, Ann.  Sue attended Sonoma State University, graduating magna cum laude.  While attending the University, she found and was co-director of Hestia House, a fully supported Independent and Open Adoption program and residential program for relinquishing birthmothers. She later worked in the Napa School system in the guidance counseling office.  Since moving to Port Townsend in 1998, she worked as the Ticket and Sales Mgr. and assisted with the volunteer program at Centrum.  Her true love of people, be they old or new-comer, is evident in the many caring friendships she developed with volunteers and ticket buyers alike. It doesn't hurt that she feeds her volunteers very well, indeed!
