I’m very honored to be returning to the Board of Governors of the Television Academy for the next two years – with so many friends, and two of my TV heroes: Terry Winter of The Sopranos and Boardwalk Empire, and Lily Tomlin.

Thank you so much to all my friends in the Interactive Media Peer Group for making this possible with your votes… I’m very grateful…
