AROUND DELBARTON
NEWS
Rory McDermott ’97 works in finance by day but managed to make time for his art.
In April the art of Rory McDermott ’97 was on display in the FAC lobby. During his years at Delbarton McDermott took the two-year AP Studio Art course, and graduated from Georgetown with a major in Finance and a minor in Studio Art (he received Georgetown’s Misty Dailey Award for achievement in Studio Art). For the past eleven years McDermott has worked in finance and studied with Paul Ching Bor at the Art Students League of New York. McDermott currently lives in Chatham, NJ with his wife and two children and, as a finance executive and artist, he embodies the Delbarton dictum to ‘Do it All’.
