Mr. McMillan has served on the boards of Pittsburgh's Heinz History Center, the Friends of Flight 93 National Memorial, and the Antietam Institute, as well as the marketing committee of the Gettysburg Foundation. He recently retired from a 43-year career in sports media and communications, including 25 years as VP of Communications for the five-time Stanley Cup champion Pittsburgh Penguins of the National Hockey League.
Copies of his book will be available for purchase at the event.
