The California African American Museum board of directors unanimously voted Monday to name Cameron Shaw as the institution’s new executive director.
Since September 2019, Shaw has served as CAAM’s deputy director and chief curator, overseeing curatorial affairs, education and public programming and communications and marketing efforts.
Shaw’s appointment follows the retirement of George O. Davis, who was the executive director since 2015.
A native Angeleno, Shaw recalled visiting the museum as a child. “CAAM was the job I found myself called to, and it feels just really right,” she said.
