Lincoln Center gets new Film Society exec


As New York's Lincoln Center puts the finishing touches on their new film center, the Film Society has announced that Mara Manus is their new exec director.  Manus moves over from The Public Theater where as exec director she oversaw the company's financial stability and growth.

Board prez Daniel Stern said: "She will be a great leader for our organization and will take the Film Society to new heights.  Her expertise in strategic planning and fundraising, as well as her knowledge of the city, will be a great asset to the organization, and will serve us well in reaching our goals and charting a new future that maximizes the expanded capability of a new film center in an extremely complex landscape.”

The Film Society of Lincoln Center puts on The New York Film Festival, New Directors/New Films, publishes Film Comment Magazine, and programs the Walter Reade Theater.
