NAC President and CEO Christopher Deacon said Herrndorf’s vision had an enormous impact on Canada’s performing arts. “He fundamentally believed the NAC belongs to all Canadians, and that it must reach out beyond its home on Elgin Street to Canadian artists, arts organization and communities in every part of the country.”
