Screen Actors Guild CEO’s Exit Is Expected
The top administrator for the Screen Actors Guild is planning to leave his post in April to become a consultant after the ratification this week of a new three-year contract between actors and studios, union sources said.
A. Robert Pisano, the union’s chief executive and national executive director, has notified SAG President Melissa Gilbert and other officers of his plans.
Greg Hessinger, national executive director of SAG’s sister union, the American Federation of Television & Radio Artists, is considered the favorite to succeed him, the sources said.
A union spokesman said directors would consider a leadership issue at a meeting Sunday but would not provide details.
