If ever a person deserved to have a building named after them, it would be Barbara B Mann. The Barbara B Mann Performing Arts Hall in Fort Myers, Florida, is a testament to her perseverance and passion for the arts. With two young boys in tow, Barbara walked door-to-door campaigning to raise enough money to bring entertainment and world-class culture to her community. Today, because of her tireless efforts, the building bearing her name is home to countless performing artists and world-class musicals. The Barbara B. Mann building is situated on the Florida Southwestern State College campus where its stage is the largest proscenium stage in the Southwest Florida area.
