[Usittne] Secretary of the Arts

[Matthew Breton]

Is there a "job description" for the Secretary of the Arts?  Some notion of what we are looking for that person to achieve, and how it would be accomplished?  How the position would relate to, say, the National Endowment for the Arts?

Dear Friends,You may already have received this, but it is so important, I'm passing it along. Quincy Jones has started a petition to ask President-Elect Obama to appoint a Secretary of the Arts.  While many other countries have had Ministers of Art or Culture for centuries, The United States has never created such a position.  We in the arts need this and the country needs the arts--now more than ever.  Please take a moment to sign this important petition and then pass it on to your friends and colleagues.www.petitiononline.com/esnyc/petition.htmlHappy New Year!
