With Duane’s leadership, The Baughman Company has become synonymous with giving back through charities such as the Jackie Robinson Foundation, B’Nai Brith, the Anti-Defamation League, Publicolor in New York City, USC’s Annenberg School of Communications, International Crisis Center and dozens of other causes.

On the personal side, Baughman is proud to honor his mother, a former president of the San Diego chapter of the United Nations Association (UNA) by creating and funding the Annette I Baughman Scholarship that sends students from Duane’s childhood home of San Diego to college.  The UNA has recognized Duane for his contribution with a “Friend of the UNA” award.

In 2001, Baughman created the award-winning 40 piece mail plan that helped bring Mike Bloomberg from 40 points behind and swept him into the New York City Mayor’s office. Bloomberg again tapped The Baughman Company to win a landslide reelection in 2005.

Baughman was a producer of the acclaimed off-Broadway play, “RFK” which enjoyed an extended run at the Bleeker Street Theater/Culture Project playhouse.
