There are so many national publications that print annual lists of influential men and women. I, for one, am always excited for Glamour magazine to unveil its Women of the Year! We’re celebrating these people nationally and, even, globally—why not celebrate them locally? So, for our annual men’s edition, we’re featuring some of the most influential men of the Lehigh Valley heading into 2022. On pg. 34, read about how Darin Barron, Jr., Javier Ávila, Eric Leadbetter, Andy Po and William Brown are shaping our community.
We hope their work moves you, but this edition’s inspiration doesn’t stop there. On pg. 23, winemaker and podcaster Randy Detrick shares his advice for living life with purpose. Then, on pg. 26, artist Michael Freeman describes his journey as a painter who is both legally blind and partially color-blind.
And don’t miss our review of Mister Lee’s Noodles’ newest location in Southside Bethlehem. The menu promises pan-fried dumplings, cold ramen, hot ramen, sandwiches, salads and more. One way it differs from their Easton location? A full bar!
