Credit where credit is due.

Our staff at Behny Entertainment, Arts, & Media are mostly Scandihoovians. Most people of this ethnic background would rather do anything else than talk about themselves. The Staff page summaries are brief so as to exercise some humility for their sake, but we are proud of the work they do and we believe anyone who asks ought to know just how important our staff is to us. So, what exactly does everyone do? Let’s take a moment to explain just that.
