    The Distinguished Service Citation recognizes men and women who have
contributed to the motor vehicle industry through sustained superior
performance and/or a specific important achievement.  The honor represents the
Automotive Hall of Fame's oldest award, dating to 1940.  Over this period,
just 375 individuals have received Distinguished Service Citations.
    For 35 years, Mr. Magliochetti has helped to shape the vision, strategy,
and performance of the Dana Corporation, one of the world's leading automotive
suppliers.  Upon being appointed as Dana's sixth chairman in April 2000, he
authored Transformation 2005, the company's strategic plan for growth through
innovation.  Along with his strong emphasis on technology and innovation, Mr.
Magliochetti has also intensified the company's focus on customer support and
unrelenting quality.  The success of this latter pursuit was evidenced last
year when U.S. President George W. Bush presented the U.S. operations of
Dana's Torque Management Group with the Malcolm Baldrige National Quality
Award, the nation's highest quality-oriented honor.
    Mr. Magliochetti's contributions to the automotive industry extend beyond
his work at Dana.  He is a member of the U.S. Business Roundtable and its
Policy Committee, and a member and former chairman of the Motor and Equipment
Manufacturers Association (MEMA) board of directors.  He serves on the board
of the National Association of Manufacturers (NAM), and is a member of the
U.S.-Japan Business Council, and the MEMA/JAMA Liaison Committee to cultivate
automotive trade relations with Japan.  He has also served on the U.S.
Department of Commerce Auto Parts Advisory Committee.  Additionally, Mr.
Magliochetti serves on the Board of Directors for BellSouth and CIGNA
Corporation, as well as the independent nominating committee to recommend
directors for the New York Stock Exchange.
    Mr. Magliochetti is also very active in the Toledo community.  At the
local level, he is currently Chairman of the 2002 fundraising campaign for the
United Way of Greater Toledo, Chairman of the Toledo Symphony Board of
Trustees, and a member of the Center of Science and Industry (COSI) Toledo
Board of Trustees.
