DEAR FRIENDS & PARTNERS ,
Educating Young Minds (EYM) is inviting a select group of corporate partners to be a part of
the 18th Annual EYM Awards Gala.
Each year we select an exemplary individual who is a trailblazer. This year we are proud to
honor Mr. Robert Santelli, Executive Director of the GRAMMY Museum®. For almost 30 years
EYM has been championing the needs of Los Angeles area youth, and we are proud to
honor Mr. Santelli, who for more than seven years has made extraordinary strides in
providing unique learning opportunities for the youth of Los Angeles through the GRAMMY
Museum's education initiatives.
Your support of EYM and the Awards Gala over the years has been invaluable. This has
been an incredible journey and I couldn’t have done it without all of you! As we move to
new heights I am counting on your support. I look forward to seeing you in celebrating the
incredible Mr. Robert Santelli and our 2016 graduates!

ROBERT SANTELLI
EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR, THE GRAMMY Museum®
Robert Santelli was named Executive Director of the GRAMMY Museum in 2006. A noted blues and rock
historian, Santelli is also the author of more than a dozen books on American music, including Greetings
from E Street (The Story of Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band) and The Bob Dylan Scrapbook, both
New York Times bestsellers. Santelli has also contributed to Rolling Stone, Musician, Modern Drummer,
Guitar Player, Downbeat, The New York Times, and New Jersey Monthly, among other periodicals. In 1993,
Santelli was one of the original curators of the then nascent Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum,
moving to Cleveland in 1995 to become the museum’s first Director of Education and Vice President of
Public Programs. There he started the American Music Masters Series and the Oral History Project, working
with Ahmet Ertegun, Jerry Wexler, Sam Phillips, and others.
Santelli also developed the UK’s first pop music museum, the British Music Experience, which opened at
London’s O2 Center in 2009. Since opening the GRAMMY Museum, located in downtown Los Angeles,
Santelli has created “An Evening With...,” a series that features in-depth interviews with artists such as
Dave Matthews, Brian Wilson, Annie Lennox, Smokey Robinson, Stevie Nicks, Nas, Damian Marley, Harry
Connick, Jr. and Clive Davis. Santelli is also on the creative team for the annual GRAMMY Awards®
telecast and wrote and developed The Official Michael Jackson Exhibition, which opened in London in
2009, before moving to Tokyo and New York. Santelli has served as head curator for many of the
museum’s most popular exhibits, including Songs of Conscious, Sounds of Freedom. Additionally, Santelli
has produced eleven educational programs with First Lady Michelle Obama at the White House, most
notably “Music That Inspired The Movement”, a program about how music influenced the Civil Rights
Movement.
Santelli, a longtime member of The Recording Academy ®, most recently served as the Vice President of
the Pacific Northwest Chapter. As founder and former president of the National Music Museum Alliance,
he spearheaded the U.S. Congressional initiative to name 2003 “The Year of the Blues.” Santelli also
served as Co-Chairman of "Woody at 100"— a partnership between the GRAMMY Museum and the
Woody Guthrie Archives. His latest book, This Land Is Your Land: Woody Guthrie and the Journey of an
American Folk Song, was released in 2012.EDUCATING YOUNG MINDS 18TH ANNUAL AWARDSGala
