“Heather Noonan, longtime VP of Advocacy for the League of American Orchestras, has been instrumental in keeping the arts on Congress’s agenda,” writes Susan Elliott in Thursday’s (4/23) Musical America. “Together with her colleagues in the Performing Arts Alliance and national organizations in the broader arts sector, she has been supporting local advocates nationwide in demonstrating that the arts matter and ensuring that the CARES legislation recognizes its organizations and artists as an important part of the American workforce. This interview took place just on the heels of the first wave of funding; the second wave, now ensured, had yet to pass, but you can be sure Noonan was involved in filling the gaps left by the first.” Noonan speaks about arts advocacy during the pandemic as part of Musical America’s “One to One interviews: how leaders are managing the crisis” series of short video interviews.
