The evening is presented by Joanne and Bernie Furshpan of Furshpan Productions.  Bernie is Managing Partner of Metropolitan Room and has produced and promoted historic concert events, with his company Big Fish Productions, at Avery Fisher Hall and Hammerstein Ballroom.  He said, “I am honored to present the legendary Barbara Cook at Town Hall.  The intimate setting brings her even closer to her adoring audience.”
