WASHINGTON, D.C. —Susan A. Glimcher has been named director of the Office of Communications, Education, and Outreach for the Advisory Council on Historic Preservation (ACHP). She begins work January 7, 2008.

 “We welcome the experience and skills Susan brings to the ACHP,” said John M. Fowler, ACHP executive director. “We look forward to her contributions as we continue to expand our communications efforts.”

Since 2000, Glimcher has worked in Washington, D.C., supporting strategic communications for companies such as Lockheed Martin Global Telecommunications (a subsidiary of Lockheed Martin), and directing the strategy and implementation of projects such as the creation of a new, multi-lingual Web site following the merger of three companies.
