Kathryn Heidemann is the President + CEO of the Cleveland Institute of Art, an arts & design college in our neighboring state to the west.  Kathryn has been working in the arts & culture administration sector for 25 years, having spent nearly 2 decades of her career in Pittsburgh.  She also plays a mean bass guitar and sings AT THE SAME TIME.  You may know her from such bands as Rockit Girl, Blindsider, The Victors!, and most recently, Garter Shake.  She is a powerhouse of a woman and in this interview we talk about her upbringing living abroad in Australia, Venezuela and Germany, as well as her time in Michigan, Chicago and Pittsburgh.  We marvel at Kathryn’s rare-but-refreshing simultaneous affinity for both Pittsburgh AND Cleveland.
