Two new members have joined the Florida Theatre Board of Directors: Ed Lombard and Angela Merritt. Both were nominated by the organizational committee and have agreed to serve a three-year term as regular voting members of the board of directors.
The Florida Theatre is governed by a board of directors drawn from the community's civic leadership, who volunteer to oversee the institution’s policies, governance and finances. There are currently 30 board members serving in this capacity.
Lombard is a managing partner with Agility Wealth Management and a financial adviser with Raymond James Financial Services. He is a chartered retirement planning counselor with more than two decades of financial planning industry experience.
Merritt is a senior account manager with DEX Imaging, helping businesses with document management and office equipment solutions. She has been with DEX Imaging since 2003 and has a background in graphic design, which gives her a unique perspective on what employees need from their copiers, printers, scanners and fax machines.
“The Florida Theatre Board of Directors is a diverse group of citizen activists from all across the First Coast region who are dedicated to preserving a unique Jacksonville landmark and supporting the organization's efforts to provide our friends and neighbors with live entertainment by the world's best performers,” said Numa Saisselin, president of the Florida Theatre. “Ed Lombard and Angela Merritt bring a wealth of talent and their own experiences in business and as Jacksonville residents to this effort, and we welcome them.”
