O'Dell Offered Top Spot in D.C.
-- Tradeshow Week, 5/16/2008 1:36:00 PM
After Reba Pittman Walker abruptly resigned as CEO and general manager of the Washington Convention Center Authority earlier this month, an authority spokesman said, the board voted 7-1 to offer the post to one of its own members, Gregory O'Dell. O'Dell, currently CEO of the D.C. Sports & Entertainment Commission, will step into this new role in the first part of June, pending emergency legislation bypassing a D.C. law that states no one can shift from a board to staff position without a 45-day wait.
