MPAA's Martinez To Commerce Dept.

It was announced last week that Motion Picture Association of America
Chairman Dan Glickman would be stepping down from his influential post as Hollywood's top lobbyist in Washington -- and now his spokeswoman says she's departing as well. Angela Martinez will be joining the Commerce Department's Economic Development Administration where she will work for senior adviser to John Fernandez, assistant secretary of commerce for economic development. In her new role, Martinez will be overseeing legislative and public affairs.

Before joining MPAA in 2007 as vice president of communications, Martinez worked with several PR firms, as the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee's Midwest Regional Political Director and in various roles in government and politics in her home state of Indiana. This is her encore performance working for Fernandez. She worked on the former Bloomington, Ind. mayor when he campaigned for Indiana secretary of state in 2002. Martinez's last day at MPAA is next Friday and she'll start her job at Commerce in mid-November.
