Greetings SAG-AFTRA members!
I am thrilled to start my new role as the local executive director of SAG-AFTRA in the Pacific Northwest. I believe broadcasting, television, film and new media entertainment are some of the most important careers in the country. You are the folks that inform and entertain the world.
The industry is changing, and I see a future where more than ever we need to unite to ensure strong job security, retirement, living wages, safety and respect on the job. In order to keep the standards high, we must be strong internally within our union and keep organizing the industry externally.
I want to thank our Local President Duane Hanson, and Seattle president Rik Deskin, our members, the local board and staff for their confidence in me.
It’s an honor to represent SAG-AFTRA members. I look forward to getting to know you, representing you and working with you to organize more of the industry.
In the union spirit of Ken Howard and Patty Duke, we need to keep organizing for our future. Together, we are strong.
In solidarity,
Shellea Allen
Executive Director, Pacific Northwest
