William Ivey Long New Chair of American Theatre Wing

Stage Directions: Looks like William Ivey Long is giving back to the American Theatre Wing. Long, a five-time Tony-award-winning costume designer joined the board of the American Theatre Wing (the organization that founded the Tony Awards) last year, and this year has been elected chair of the board of directors of the American Theatre Wing. Ted Chapin, current chair, will continue on the board as co-vice chair. The board also took on new members this year, including Pamela Zilly, Pamela Bell, and Mark Abrahams.
