JUDITH MITCHELL

Retired CEO, RAYMOND F. KRAVIS CENTER FOR THE PERFORMING ARTS, WEST PALM BEACH

Until she retired last year, Mitchell was the only CEO the center has had since its completion in 1992.

“I’m very entrepreneurial,” says Mitchell, a graduate of Abilene Christian University.

At the Kravis Center, she oversaw 200 full-time employees and 500 volunteers and a schedule of national and international artists and companies along with arts education programs, which hosted more than 2.6 million students since its inception. She led a $50-million campaign to support a redesign and facility expansion.

In her down time, Mitchell says, “I love skeet shooting.”
