Who Is Harold?
From his earliest days in Los Angeles, Harold Huttas has woven dance and art into every aspect of his professional and philanthropic life. A founder and chair of Friends of the Joffrey Ballet and an early supporter of the Los Angeles Music Center and MOCA, he championed world-class dance and contemporary art while simultaneously building a major printing and media enterprise. He turned his “connector” instincts into a natural merging of business and philanthropy—inviting clients and friends to performances, museum openings, gallery shows, and intimate gatherings with artists, dancers, and designers, often giving people access to cultural experiences they would never have sought on their own. He deepened that commitment through AIDS-related work, using art and performance as engines for change: co‑chairing and producing APLA’s landmark “Commitment to Life” events, founding art auctions, and helping lead AMFAR’s ART AGAINST AIDS benefits in Los Angeles and Dallas. Even inside his own plant, he created Harold’s Gallery to showcase visual artists—designers, illustrators, photographers—ensuring they received 100% of the proceeds from their work. Across decades, his life tells a consistent story: a profound belief that dance and art are not just passions, but powerful tools for building community, raising consciousness, and transforming lives.
