Board members included Amir Dossal and the film producer Steven Haft. It was upgraded with a dossal, brass altar set, and a new lectern. He is married to Tas Dossal, and the couple has one son, Zecki. Currently (2019) it is no longer on display, obscured by a dossal curtain. The main figure is sitting (possibly on a throne) under a dossal. The dossal curtain at the back of the altar was renewed in 1978. In 2017, Dossal received the Ellis Island Medal of Honor. A single curtain hung, usually on a wall, behind an altar, is called a dossal. In 2016, the ICAEW bestowed Dossal with an Outstanding Achievement Award. Until September 2010, Dossal was the United Nations' Chief Liaison for Partnerships. Since joining the United Nations in 1985, Dossal has led a number of new initiatives. Dossal is also co-initiator of the Pearl Initiative, which promotes transparency in the Gulf Region.
