It’s been learned that Dallas Film Society President/CEO Tanya Foster is resigning.
The official announcement will be made next week that the DFS is immediately undertaking a search for Tanya’s replacement. Hmm, qualifications — be brilliant, beautiful and beyond charming?
Before Tanya cleans out her desk, she’ll be part of that search team including Dallas Film Society Chairman of the Board Lynn McBee.
During her two-year tenure, Tanya supervised the DFS’s having Robert Duvall at Art of the Film in 2010, and served as executive director for a memorable Dallas International Film Festival hosting Dennis Quaid, Jerry Jeff Walker, Peter Fonda, Ann-Margret and other dazzling stars this past spring.
Oh, yes. Of course, you want to know why she’s resigning. How about one husband and four kiddos? If you’ve ever raised munchkins, you know that it’s imperative to be available at their beck and call once they hit the teenage years. Looks like Ms. Tanya has her priorities nicely in place.
