USA - In a move that is bound to set the lighting industry talking, Strand Lighting announced today that Sonny Sonnenfeld would be rejoining Strand after a 20-year absence, as commercial consultant and New York representative, serving the consultant, Broadway, and dealer community. Sonnenfeld joined Century Lighting (now Strand) in 1945, after serving throughout World War II in the South Pacific. In 1961 he co-founded Lighting & Electronics, rejoining what had then become Strand Century between 1975-85.

Strand president Tim Burnham comments: "Sonny is coming home to Strand after a brief 20 years away from the family - it's a very cool thing! Sonny has forgotten more about this business than most of us will ever know, and his rejoining us speaks volumes for the direction Strand Lighting is taking. We're working very hard every day to satisfy our growing customer base, and now we're going to have to work twice as hard to satisfy Sonny!"

Sonneneld will continue to live in Las Vegas and will commute regularly to New York City and to the Strand Lighting HQ in Southern California.
