“This is a decision that was made right from the start two years ago when I was asked to return to the presidency,” Winship said in a statement sent to guild members Tuesday, just as WGAE revealed the candidates up for officer seats in its upcoming council election this September.
According to WGA, the candidates for officer seats include Lisa Takeuchi Cullen for president, Chris Kyle for secretary-treasurer and Erica Saleh for vice president in the film/television/streaming work sector. Voting will be available for WGAE members online or by mail beginning at 12:00 a.m. ET on Wednesday, Sept. 6. Voting will take place in person on Sept. 21 at 4:30 p.m. at the WGAE office, with voting closing at 5 p.m.See Winship’s letter toThose of you who have seen the list of candidates for this year’s upcoming Writers Guild East elections may have noticed that I am not running for re-election as your president.
That the last weeks of this current term would come in the midst of our strike is unfortunate, but I am not disappearing — for one thing, I remain in office until late September — and will continue to be involved to the best of my ability even after my term ends.
