the President of Zonta International for the 2010-2012 biennium.
She has been a member of the Zonta Club of Santa Clarita Valley
in California since 1980. She served as Governor of District 9,
Chairman of the Convention Committe for the 1992 Convention in
Hawaii, and has held all positions on the International Board

Dianne wants the lives of those to whom we give service to
improve. That improvement could be living free of fear, living
healthy lives, ending violence against women and children, and

vital to our ability to influence the status of women in the
