Gary Sackett

Gary Sackett is, like many of us, understandably frustrated. A strong advocate and supporter of Brady and the gun violence prevention movement for nearly 40 years, he is filled with passion, knowledge, conviction, and he’s never giving up despite the obstacles that we face.

Cooper Elliott

In 2018, Brady Legal and the Cooper Elliott law firm filed suit against Cabela’s, alleging that the company negligently and illegally sold a black powder firearm to a prohibited purchaser. The firearm was used to kill Bryan Galliher, the gunman’s neighbor, over a small argument. In honor of Bryan, the Cooper Elliott law firm donated a portion of the settlement to Brady.

Juano Queen

Juano Queen, attorney and media executive, has the distinct honor of having served on two different Brady Regional Leadership Councils, first in New York and now in Los Angeles.

Tom Green

Tom Green first became interested in the gun violence prevention movement after serving in Vietnam where he “saw enough guns for the rest of my life.” When he returned to the U.S., Tom moved to Washington to begin his legal career as a federal prosecutor.

Jim Reichardt

Jim Reichardt first got involved with Brady 37 years ago when it was still called Handgun Control, Inc. As a successful lawyer in Chicago, early on, Jim recognized the devastating effect of gun violence and wanted to be part of the solution.

Gary Holland

Gary N. Holland grew up in Long Beach and became a supporter of Brady over three decades ago, simply as a concerned citizen who was alarmed at the level of gun violence that he heard about on the news.

Kath Tsakalakis

As a British immigrant to the U.S., and now as a U.S. citizen, Kath was surprised that it took her nearly 15-years to “wake up to gun violence.” She was shocked to learn both teachers and students practice active shooter drills.

Melanie and Richard Lundquist

Melanie and Richard Lundquist are agents of change and two of Southern California’s most significant philanthropists. Their gifts have created the partnership for Los Angeles Schools, a sustainable turnaround model for underserved non-charter K-12 public schools, and they have helped innovate healthcare delivery and innovation, saving countless lives.

Kal Barson

“I applaud our Northern neighbor for banning military-style assault weapons so quickly after the Nova Scotia massacre. Canada is joining New Zealand in bringing some sanity to gun ownership, says Brady supporter Kal Barson.

Kristin Anundsen

Kristin Anundsen is involved in many causes and has supported Brady since it was called Handgun Control, Inc! At 80 years young, she lives in San Francisco and is active in women’s rights issues, the arts, climate change activism, and says that gun violence prevention “is way up there."

Josh Solomon

Josh is one of the founders and current principal of the Business of Sports School (BOSS), which teaches students the foundation of business and entrepreneurship along with academic subjects. BOSS gives many inner-city students in New York City, who might not have completed high school, the opportunity to graduate with both academic and business skills and a personal mentoring network in the sports community.

Tim Gomes

Tim, a successful entrepreneur and philanthropist, joined Brady's Board of Directors in 2009, serving with distinction for ten years. He was drawn to Brady because, in his opinion, the "Goliath" NRA no longer represented legitimate gun owners' interests, and he was also outraged by their indifference to the suffering caused by gun violence. Tim felt strongly that the NRA had become a lobby for gun manufacturers and a national security threat in need of opposition.

Marita and Kevin Daly

Marita and Kevin Daly have been Brady supporters for years and active in leadership since 2017. Marita, a retired lawyer and chair of Brady’s Northern California Regional Leadership Council (RLC), and Kevin, who currently works in finance at Five Corners Partners, work on gun violence prevention efforts in schools as well as gun violence protective order education and promoting safe gun storage.

Mark Stone

Like many Americans, Mark’s life was impacted by gun violence — one of his dearest friend’s granddaughters ended her life in a gun suicide. Mark laments the senseless loss of life caused by gun violence in our country, and particularly in the city of Chicago.
