I approve.

We will be sure to celebrate all Mike has done for Truman. Briefly for now, thank you Mike for your exceptional service to Truman. You have been a tremendous asset to this organization.

>> Members of the Board:
>>
>> As you already know, Mike Breen is leaving his position at Truman and will be transitioning to his new position as President and CEO of Human Rights First. We are all very grateful for his leadership over the years, and we are excited for him with this new opportunity.
>>
>> As Truman Center Chairman, together with Truman Project's Chairman John Driscoll, we will form a search committee to find a permanent replacement for Mike, i.e., someone to serve as the next chief executive of Truman. We will share more details about this in the coming weeks.
>>
>> Meanwhile, in the immediate near term, we need to name an interim Executive Director for Truman prior to the public announcement of Mike's departure, which is scheduled for Thursday afternoon. The interim Executive Director will be empowered as chief executive in order to execute the organization's current strategic plan, adapting the plan as necessary in consultation with the Board, until such time as the Board completes a deliberate process to select a new CEO.
>>
>> We recommend and would like to nominate, and confirm through a board e-mail vote, Bishop Garrison as interim Executive Director. Bishop has been a member of the Truman community since 2013, and has recently joined staff as Managing Director of Policy and Advocacy. His full bio and headshot are attached here for more information. I have had the opportunity to meet with Bishop already, and am sure you will agree that he is extremely well-equipped to lead the organization's work for the immediate near term.
>>
>> Please respond to me and Meghan Valle (mvalle@trumanproject.org) by end of day on Wednesday 9/5 with your vote to confirm Bishop as interim Executive Director in advance of the public announcement on Thursday.
>>
>> Thanks all for your continued support.
