Linda Powell was elected Executive Vice President of SAG-AFTRA at the union's bi-annual convention in October 2023. She is a New York based actress who has appeared on Broadway and off and can be seen in shows such as Dopesick, Modern Love, House of Cards, Chicago Fire, Madam Secretary, and Law & Order SVU. Her film credits include The Report, The Courtroom, I Think I Love my Wife, and American Gangster. Most recently she enjoyed a long run starring as Neil Diamond’s therapist in the Broadway bio-musical A Beautiful Noise.
As a Vice Chair of the TV/Theatrical negotiating committee, Powell played an integral role in the union’s recent strike and subsequent contract ratification. A national board member since 2012, her election to Executive Vice President makes her the first African American to serve in the top tier of leadership since the merged union’s inception. Powell also serves as a trustee of the SAG-AFTRA Health and Pension plans, is Chair of the Board of Advisors to the Colin Powell School at the City College of New York, and is a proud member of Actors Equity and The Actors Center.
