Happy Birthday, HBS
What would a birthday be without a cake? And what better cake for HBS’s 100th birthday party on April 8 than a replica of the Baker Library|Bloomberg Center. It’s a good thing the order came in well in advance. Pastry chef Jill Bernardo and ice sculptor Joe Dias, in white smocks, started planning the party’s pièce de résistance in January. Dias built the plywood and Styrofoam superstructure, and Bernardo oversaw creation of the confectionary facade. It measured 6’x 5’x 2’ (minus the cupola). Banquet managers Catherine DiChiara (green jacket) and Heather Dennis helped light the candles as partygoers looked on.
