9 Congratulations Bernard Curry, GNYADA Nominee for TIME Dealer of the Year Award

is one of the automobile industry’s most prestigious and highly coveted honors. Curry was one of only 51 auto dealers nominated for the annual award out of more than 16,000 dealers nationwide. “Being a business owner gives me the wonderful opportunity to give back to my community through charitable work, to provide good jobs for more than 1,000 people, including 450 here in Westchester County, and to enhance the lives of their families,” nominee Curry said. “I greatly appreciate this recognition and share it with the entire Curry team.” Curry was recognized for applying his management expertise and personal philosophy to community causes. When he was recruited to serve on his local hospital’s board of directors after it hired a new CEO, he jumped at the chance to have a

positive impact. Now known as New York-Presbyterian Hudson Valley Hospital, it is a highly rated institution that brings great medical care to the entire region. Curry was also instrumental in creating the Westchester Children’s Museum, in the landmark boathouses at Playland Amusement Park in Rye, NY, as a founding board member and museum benefactor. He currently sponsors an educational exhibit called Toddler Beach at the park. A recipient of numerous honors for his philanthropic work, Curry is equally committed to bettering the lives of his employees. The Greater New York Automobile Dealers Association thanks Bernard for representing GNYADA at this prestigious ceremony.
