NAB Names Siciliano SVP of Communications
• The NAB announced the appointment of Alex Siciliano as Senior Vice President of Communications. In this role, Siciliano will lead NAB’s communications team and oversees the association’s media outreach. He’s responsible for messaging strategies to further NAB’s initiatives and advocacy issues before Congress and the administration and also serves as the chief spokesperson for NAB and as a key advisor to the association’s senior leadership.
Siciliano most recently served as Deputy Chief of Staff for former Sen. Cory Gardner (R-CO), and has worked on numerous political campaigns for the House, Senate and White House. “NAB has a strong team leading our press outreach, focused on communicating the value that America’s broadcasters bring to every local community,” said NAB CEO Curtis LeGeyt. “Alex brings valuable experience in government and politics to this leadership role, effectively communicating how policy issues impacting broadcasters can affect the service local radio and TV stations provide. Broadcasters are well served by Alex and this team of veteran communicators.”
Siciliano leads a press team that includes VP of Communications Zamir Ahmed and Communications and Social Media Manager Grace Whaley. NAB’s communications team is part of the Public Affairs department led by Chief of Staff and Executive Vice President Michelle Lehman.
Siciliano’s appointment comes on the heels of Monday’s news that longtime NAB veteran Ann Marie Cumming has resigned as SVP & Head of Communications to accept the position of Executive Director of the Congressional Club Museum and Foundation.
