Greetings from President & CEO, Ken Stein






              2018 Board of Directors          Dear Members:
                   Dana Amendola               I’m never quite sure what to write for these letters. So much of
                Disney Theatrical Group        what I would want to tell you is contained in the pages that follow
                    Randy Cohen                this one. I hope you enjoy another digital issue of InLeague and
                 Americans for the Arts        encourage you to continue to share your stories and insights with
                    Molly Fortune              us. I truly believe the single most important benefit of League
                Newberry Opera House           membership is the access it brings you to best practices from your
                   Jeffrey W. Gabel            peers around the nation and Canada… and let’s not forget our
                   Majestic Theater            members in the United Kingdom as well.
                   Becky Hancock

                     TicketForce               knows? If it goes well, we might just have to plan a National
