ON THE NEXT EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR OF THE ANA

Alan V. Weinberg writes: "I'd like to see a numismatist, 
not a lawyer or 'professional executive', take the newly 
opened position of ANA Executive Director - someone who 
understands the hobby-industry and the member-collectors 
and dealers. Unfortunately, any candidate would have to 
be aware of the time away from home and family and the 
'political flack' one takes, although it's certain now to 
be substantially less - particularly since the newly-elected 
Board of Directors with its mostly highly qualified membership 
will be taking a much more active role in running the ANA, 
presumably making the new Executive Director's position so 
much easier and less controversial.

Message to the Board of Directors searching for a new 
Executive Director: Look from within the hobby! The talent 
is there."

[While I would never rule out a talented outsider, I agree 
that the board should carefully consider candidates from 
within the hobby or even within the walls of headquarters. 
Sometimes the best candidates are the easiest to find.
