Pat O'Herin, Executive Vice President, Regions Bank

Pat was born in the City of St. Louis at the old DePaul Hospital. She grew up in the City around Old Sportman's Park, where she spent her first 9 years. She then moved to Dellwood in the county to finish out her high school years. Pat has grown up to be a successful and influential businesswoman in St. Louis.
After a long, hard day at the office, Pat enjoys reading, watching a few of her favorite TV shows and giving her cats attention. On her weekends, she usually spends time with her husband, going to movies, the theatre and eating out. We conducted an interview of this fascinating lady and here are some of her responses:

1- What's your favorite food? Unfortunately, it is dessert...carrot cake!!
2- What's the last book you read? Kite Runner and I am currently reading A Leap of Faith by Queen Noor
3- Do you have a favorite quote? "Seize the Day"!
4- What's your favorite drink? Nonalcoholic ...ice tea; Alcoholic... a nice glass of Cabernet
5- What is something that most people you work with don't know about you or, if they do know it, they find surprising? That I went to Woodstock
6- What makes you mad? People who are capable but are too lazy to do a good job!
7- What kind of movies do you like to watch? I like all kinds as long as there is a good plot. The more complicated, the better. Every once in a while, I need a good comedy...a real belly shaker!
8- Hobbies? I love to read and spend time volunteering with the Girl Scouts. I was a voice major in college so I still am passionate about music! And now because I am an empty nester, I love to spend times with my adult children, when they will let me!!
