Assemblymember Krekorian to Serve
on Armenian Dramatic Arts Alliance Board of Trustees
GLENDALE, CA - California State Assemblymember Paul Krekorian
(D-Burbank) has been named to serve on the Board of Trustees of the
Armenian Dramatic Arts Alliance. Krekorian, who represents the cities
of Glendale and Burbank, as well as the Los Angeles neighborhoods of Van
Nuys, Valley Village, Los Feliz, and Silverlake, has a long history of
involvement in the arts.
"I am extremely pleased to serve on the Armenian Dramatic Arts
Alliance's Board of Trustees," stated Assemblymember Krekorian. "Over
the last three years, the ADAA has made incredible strides in preserving
the work of renowned Armenian playwrights, screenwriters and filmmakers,
and has steadfastly promoted the efforts of a new generation of
visionary artists. I look forward to assisting the ADAA in its mission
of projecting Armenian voices in theatre and film on the world stage,"
continued Krekorian.
Soon after his election to the California Legislature in 2006, Krekorian
was appointed to serve as the Chair of the Assembly's Select Committee
on the Preservation of California's Entertainment Industry, and in that
capacity he has led the fight to preserve film and television production
jobs. Recently, he was appointed to serve on the California Film
Commission alongside motion picture professionals such as actor/director
Danny DeVito, actor/director Clint Eastwood, entertainment industry
labor leader Michael Miller, and studio executives from Paramount, 20th
Century Fox, and Sony Pictures, among others. Krekorian was an
entertainment and intellectual property lawyer for many years before his
election to the Assembly.
The Armenian Dramatic Arts Alliance serves as a resource for theater and
film professionals, and is dedicated to preserving, chronicling, and
translating preserving texts of Armenian drama. Since its
establishment, the ADAA has supported playwrights and screenwriters of
Armenian descent through scholarships and writing awards, and has
provided an outlet to established and up-and-coming filmmakers through
film festivals and other promotional programs and events.
