PORTLAND, Ore. (July 30, 2024) – Tonkon Torp attorney Danny Newman has been elected Chair of the Pioneer Courthouse Historical Society Board of Directors. Danny has served on the Society’s board since 2022. The Pioneer Courthouse Historical Society is an organization of judges, court staff, lawyers, historians, architects, and exhibit designers who work to preserve and provide to the public the history of Portland’s Pioneer Courthouse.
“It’s been a pleasure serving on the Society board, helping to maintain the courthouse and share its history,” said Newman. “Preserving and treasuring such an important part of Oregon’s past is a meaningful way to connect our local community and reminds us what we have in common – an especially important goal in these divisive times.”
