Cattle Track Talks
Join us in the CattleTrack Gallery for a stimulating hour with creative and innovative members of our community. Presenters/performers will share their expertise and engage in lively conversation with the audience.
Tuesday, Dec. 13th, 2022 7:00pm – 8:00pm
CattleTrack Talks will feature John Dannerbeck.
John Dannerbeck is the third generation to lead his family’s Maytag Dairy Farms blue cheese company. John spent decades working with his uncles Fritz and Ken Maytag, overseeing the company, and became Chairman & CEO in 2015.
John is also the third generation of his family to reside in Scottsdale, spending the formative years of his boyhood living and working on his parents’ 20,000-acre cattle ranch near Cottonwood. He graduated from George Washington University, where as an undergraduate, he worked at The White House as a speechwriting researcher. At the age of 23, he was one of the youngest ever to write speeches for a President.
A Scottsdale Family Saga:
Appliances, Cheese, and Craft Beer
Join us in the CattleTrack Gallery as John Dannerbeck discusses the history of his family’s commercial enterprises, including Maytag Dairy Farms, Anchor Brewing, and the appliance company founded by his great-grandfather F.L. Maytag. He will also discuss the family history in Scottsdale and their very long and unique relationship with Cattle Track. Along the way, we will sample Maytag blue cheese, sip Anchor Steam beer, and probably tell one or two tall tales that may include his great-uncle Bob Maytag’s founding of the Phoenix Zoo.
