Lesli Linka Glatter has been re-elected president of the Administrators Guild of America by acclamation of the delegates on the DGA’s Biennial Nationwide Conference in Los Angeles.
“I am thrilled to say we are as strong and united as ever before,” she mentioned. “Together, we will continue our shared fight — along with SAG-AFTRA and the WGA — for an industry in which we are all fairly valued and celebrated for the work we do.”
“At this critical time for our industry, I am more committed than ever to our Guild’s mission of protecting the creative and economic rights of our members and working collaboratively both internally and externally on the issues affecting us all,” she mentioned. “As we embark on the next chapter of our Guild, I’m elated to work alongside an incredibly talented, creative and diverse Board, all of whom generously volunteer their time to advocate for their fellow members and do their part in building an industry where everyone can thrive. As a union, our power comes from our unity.”
First elected president in two years in the past, she has served on the guild’s nationwide board for 20 years, beforehand serving as first vice-president, and earlier than that as fifth VP. She’s been a member of three previous negotiating committees and as president labored with the 2023 negotiating committee to attain what the guild has known as a “historic” new contract “with significant gains on wages, global streaming residuals, safety, diversity and television creative rights, building for the future and impacting every category of member in our Guild.”
Former DGA President Thomas Schlamme, who nominated her, mentioned that “Over the last two rather intense years, Lesli has distinguished herself as a champion for our members across every category, including in our extremely challenging contract negotiation, and we are all better off for it. She has led with wisdom, an incredible fearlessness and an enormous amount of compassion. We are so fortunate that as a leader, she understands the needs of our membership and pursues them relentlessly — work she will continue in her next term.”
