In 2006 he was elected to the national organization’s Board of Directors, as well as that of the Planned Parenthood Action Fund that conducts voter and candidate education. In 1989 Chicago’s Howard Brown Health Center presented Bryan the “Friend for Life Award” in recognition of his fundraising and governance achievements.
