Google “Anmn Wells” and “bank,” and about all you’ll find is that she’s been CEO of Louisville-basex Commonwealth Bank & Trust Co. since she replaced James Ruckerflast October. Still, you mighyt have seen Wells in the summer edition of member photographed at the SpeedBall fund-raiser with her Darrell R.
