                       TRIBUTE TO MARY ANNE MANG

                                 ______


                         HON. ROBERT K. DORNAN

                             of california

                    in the house of representatives

                        Wednesday, June 29, 1994

  Mr. DORNAN. Mr. Speaker, one of the greatest pleasures of serving in 
this legislative body is the opportunity we occasionally get to alert 
our fellow citizens to outstanding individuals in our Nation. I rise 
today to recognize such an individual, Mary Anne Mang, who is retiring 
after 33 years of successful service to Disneyland. I repeat: 33 years 
of loyal service.
  Mary Anne began her long and distinguished career at Disneyland in 
1960 as the manager of their newly established sales promotion 
department. A year later she moved to Disneyland's group sales 
department and for the last 8 years has served as their public 
relations manager. One of her notable and personally fulfilling 
accomplishments has been the Disneyland Creativity Challenge Program, 
which she helped found more than 6 years ago. This program recognizes 
junior and senior high school students who are interested in the 
creative and fine arts disciplines.
  In addition to her responsibilities at Disneyland, Mary Anne has been 
dedicated to serving her community in other capacities as well. She 
currently sits on the board of directors of several Orange County civic 
organizations, including the American Red Cross, American Heart 
Association, Boys & Girls Club of Anaheim, and the Volunteer Center of 
Greater Orange County. She is also a member of a number of local 
councils and committees, including the Anaheim Arts Council, Anaheim 
Chamber of Commerce Women's Division, Anaheim Memorial Hospital Medical 
Center Governing Board, and Susan Komen Foundation.
  On a more personal note, it was during her time at Disneyland that 
Mary Anne developed a professional relationship with a fine gentleman 
of law enforcement, Norbert Mang, who at the time was serving as the 
captain of the Anaheim Police. They fell in love and married 18 years 
ago. He has been a loving and supportive husband to Mary Anne through 
all of her time-consuming endeavors. I guess behind every successful 
woman there's a great peace officer. Well, almost every great woman.
  Throughout her entire career, Mary Anne Mang has exhibited 
extraordinary leadership, skill, and professionalism. She has been a 
wonderful role model for her coworkers and an exemplary inspiration and 
role model to us all. I sincerely hope that her influence will linger 
at Disney and in her community and that her future holds as many joyful 
and fulfilling days as her past.
  May God bless you always, Mary Anne. What's your next challenge?
