Williams Named Director of Marketing, AMA

• The Americana Music Association has elevated Anna Lee (Crenshaw) Williams to Director of Marketing.

Williams begins her sixth year with the association this month, most recently serving as Manager of Marketing and Member Relations for the not-for-profit. After starting her career by interning for AmericanaFest in 2013, Williams later worked at BAM! Social Business as Social Strategist and Product Manager before returning full-time to the Americana Music Association in 2017.

In her newly elevated role, Williams reports to Executive Director Jed Hilly, who said, “Anna Lee is a born leader and her value to the association cannot be understated. She has consistently performed not just as a consummate professional, but also a true team player. She is a huge asset to the community.”

Williams commented, “Over these last five years, I’ve been fortunate enough to get to know our incredible community as I’ve grown within the association. It’s always been a privilege to advocate for this music, and I’m looking forward to my new position and continuing to elevate what we can do together.” Williams can be reached at annalee@americanamusic.org.
