Ever since its inception in 1874, the Chit Chat Club has always had exactly 25 Members (with a few unavoidable but quite temporary exceptions, like World War II and the recent pandemic). The current membership includes one architect, four arts professionals, four businessmen, five professors, two religious leaders, four writers, two doctors, one epidemiologist and two lawyers.

If you click on any of the Member’s portraits below, you will be taken to that Member’s personal page, where you will find links to all the Chit Chat Club essays he or she has written over the years.
