Cynthia’s Picks: Director Disconnect, Board Elections, Ladies’ Morning

Director Disconnect: While the call for diversity in Hollywood is getting more bandwidth than ever, the movement toward inclusion is still not reaching the director’s chair.  

Board Elections: NYWIFT members, don’t forget to vote in our Board Elections! Ballots have been emailed out to you and voting closes on May 1st. (If you missed the emails, please contact our office.) The NYWIFT board represents each member in shaping NYWIFT’s programs, policies and activities. Please participate in selecting your representatives. We have nine wonderful candidates running for seven positions, so this is an especially important year. 

Ladies’ Morning: For the first time ever, all three major network morning shows are being run by female executive producers.
