Mary Lyon McKenney:

I have a B.A. in Mathematics from Meredith College in Raleigh, NC. From July 1977 to July 1997 I was Vice President of Camper Enterprises in Virginia Beach, VA and since 1997 have been President. Between September 2000 and 2002 I was Senior Managing Director of Community Concerts, Inc. out of New York and Charlotte, NC. Between July 1977 and June 1996 I was Executive Vice President of Commonwealth Yarn Sales in New York. I started my career between 1964 and 1968 as a teacher at Cary High School in Cary, NC and York High School in Yorktown, VA.

My passion is music. From 1978 to 1993 I was Minister of Music at Christ Community Church in Waldwick, NJ, and held the same post at Great Bridge Baptist Church from 1994 to 2000. Since 2002 I have been Director of the Virginia Voices International.
