Distinguished Alumnae Award Recipients 2015

Congratulations to Janine Lederman Flammang ’80 and Hilary Singleton-Green Corman ’85 for their service to Spence as well as Dr. Marisa Reddy Randazzo ’85 for her professional achievements.
For Service to Spence

In the words of a fellow alumna on the Reunion Committee, Janine Lederman Flammang ’80 “does so much quietly and tirelessly; she is the first to champion her classmates, other alums and Spence.” Flammang has served on the Alumnae Board, the Reunion Committee and the Outreach Committee. In addition, she is a member of The 1892 Society, Spence’s planned giving group, and an IndiSPENCEable, alumnae who have given to the Annual Fund for 10 or more consecutive years. Outside of Spence, Flammang has worked for the past 30 years, currently managing her family’s fine jewelry manufacturing company. 


Hilary Singleton-Green Corman’s ’85 list of committee positions that continuously sustain and strengthen The Spence School is impressive: Corman has served on the Board of Trustees, the Reunion Committee (past and present), the Task Force for The 1892 Society (as well as being a member herself), the Long Range Planning Committee and the Outreach Committee. She was President of the Alumnae Association, an Annual Fund volunteer (attending many phonathons) and is one of our IndiSPENCEables. Alongside her active involvement and stellar volunteer leadership, Corman has led a successful professional life. Since receiving a B.S. and B.A. from Georgetown University and an M.B.A. from Columbia Business School, Corman has worked for 20 years in investment banking and institutional equity brokerage. She is currently a Managing Director at BlackRock and in charge of the Asset Manager Channel within iShares.
