Talbott Named VP At AMA

Philadelphia-based management/booking agency Arts Management Associates (AMA) has named John Talbott VP.

He previously served as executive director of Atlanta’s Southern Arts Federation since 2000.

In his new role at AMA, Talbott will “cover the United States along with [President Eric Amada] in selling our artists or attractions from New England to Florida to California,” he told Pollstar. “Basically, we’re partnering and dividing the country in half. I’m taking the northern part of the country … but there will be some crossover.”

AMA’s roster includes Three Mo’ Tenors, Peter Nero, The American Tenors, and Billy Gilman, among others.
