Executive Director of SONA, Michelle Lewis, elected to ASCAP’s Board of Directors

Paul Williams, ASCAP’s president and chairman of the board, has announced the 12 writer and 12 publisher members elected to serve on the PRO’s Board for a new two-year term that begins on April 1.

The most notable new member is songwriter/composer Michelle Lewis who has written songs for Cher and Little Mix and is a full-time composer for Disney. She is also director of the Songwriters of North America, an organization formed this past September and brought a lawsuit against the Department of Justice for its widely decried 100% licensing mandate.
