no matter where they are 
sitting.
Luterman, who grew up in 
Farmington Hills and now 
lives in Hamtramck, enjoyed 
singing before she got into 
acting and considers both 
among her career talents as 
she enhances her dancing 
skills. A graduate of Harrison 
High School before entering 
Wayne State University, she 
was not sure at first of the 
educational path she would 
follow and then decided to 
pursue a bachelor’s of fine arts 
degree in acting.
Although she tried to 
advance her talents in New 
York during the year after 
graduation, Luterman decided 
that city was not the place for 
her, and she moved back to 
Michigan.
“My biggest desire is not to 
be on Broadway,” Luterman, 
23, said. “It’s to do work I feel 
is important. With this show 
in particular, I feel I’m doing 
some important work.”
Luterman’s performances 
in Michigan have reached 
from what was known as 
the Michigan Opera Theatre 
to Planet Ant Theatre. 
During the times Luterman 
is working on stages, she 

also arranges her schedule 
to manage a beauty salon in 
Farmington.
“I am a twin sister, and 
she could not be any more 
different from me,” said 
Luterman, who is single. 
“She’s at Carnegie Mellon 
University in Pittsburgh 
studying science writing, and 
she went to Grand Valley 
State University double 
majoring in writing and 
science. We’re very close, and 
she’s never missed one of my 
opening nights.”
Luterman has expressed 
that she believes she got her 
stage charisma from her dad, 
Rich Luterman, Fox 2-TV 
chief meteorologist. Although 
he did not plan for a career 
in television, his experiences 
on radio broadcasts for the 
military prepared him for 
television assignments in his 
career. 
“I can translate the 
charisma I got from my dad 
to characters being portrayed 
on stage,” the assistant 
director said.
Luterman described the 
character of Matt as quirky 
and funny and smart. 
“You can tell that he’s a 
great person,” she said.

On Oct. 6, the personal 
genomics service 23andMe 
confirmed that a breach 
of sensitive data affecting 
approximately 1 million 
users of Ashkenazi Jewish 
descent had occurred. The 
data includes “profile and 
account ID numbers, names, 
gender, birth year, maternal 
and paternal genetic markers, 
ancestral heritage results, and 
data on whether or not each 
user has opted into 23and-
Me’s health data.” 
According to cybersecurity 
researchers, the compro-
mised data has been made 
available for purchase on 
cybercriminal forums.
While it is unclear at this 
time whether the data breach 
was part of an explicit attack 

on the Jewish community, 
the sale of personally identi-
fiable information may con-
tribute to additional criminal 
activities targeting Jewish 
users. SCN recommends that 
individuals who are poten-
tially affected by the breach 
consider retaining a data pro-
tection service that provides 
dark web monitoring and 
threat alerts.
Follow established pro-
tocols to report suspicious 
activity — to include con-
tacting local law enforce-
ment and/or the relevant 
suspicious activity reporting 
authority — and contact 
the SCN Duty Desk at

Nachman to Step Down 
from Cabaret 313
Cabaret 313 co-founder and 
president Allan Nachman is 
stepping down and Edward 
Eickhoff, trea-
surer, is the new 
president. 
Nachman, a 
retired lawyer, 
will continue as 
artistic direc-
tor and board 
member. He 
co-founded 
the nonprofit 
in 2001 with 
Sandi Reitelman. 
The two Metro 
Detroiters devel-
oped the idea to 
introduce pro-
fessional cabaret to Detroit, 
bringing premier talent from 
Broadway and New York 
stages to stunning venues 
across the city. The nonprofit 
celebrated its 10th anniversary 
in 2022. 

“I attended performances 
in its third year and became 
hooked,” said Eickhoff, an 
area real estate execu-
tive. “Cabaret 313 has 
continued to grow, 
collaborating with 
next generation of 
performers, including 
its masterclass series 
with the University 
of Michigan School 
of Music, Theatre 
and Dance; Oakland 
University’s Musical 
Theatre Program 
and Detroit’s Mosaic 
Youth Theatre.”
Nachman said 
Cabaret 313’s mission 
is dedicated to bringing the 
artform of cabaret to Detroit 
while supporting and enhanc-
ing the increasing energy and 
vibrancy of the city. He said 
the organization has become a 
cultural staple in Detroit.
