 John S. Price

On February 22, 2014, our President, John S. Price, passed away at the age of 90. He was involved with the America-Italy Society of Philadelphia since 1957, and served as President since 1969. He was the driving force behind our success, particularly with the Amerita Chamber Players and the restoration of Venetian art. We are deeply saddened by his passing and will remember his involvement with us during future events.

These photos show Mr. Price leading a group through a Tuscan Villas and Gardens tour in 1968.  He planned these tours for many years to share his admiration for Italian architecture and composition with members of the Society.
