Hall of Fame Selection Committee

The Baking Hall of Fame is an initiative of the American Society of Baking to recognize industry innovation and entrepreneurial spirit. Individuals inducted into the Baking Hall of Fame are recognized for their achievements in organizational growth and development, equipment design and innovation, advancements in ingredient technology and processing, or services related to the commercial baking industry. Each year, committee members review submitted nomination forms, related data, and background information on industry peers and those who have made a significant contribution to the industry.
