For more than 100 years, the Performing Arts Department (PAD) at New Trier Township High School in Winnetka, Illinois has turned out scores of Hollywood and Broadway stars. From legends like Ann Margret, Ralph Bellamy, and Charlton Heston, to modern stars like Virginia Madsen, Adam Baldwin, and Rainn Wilson, the list of actors, writers, directors, producers, animators, set designers, costume designers, and more, is long.
