Milwaukee Chamber Theatre has named David Todd the company's new managing director.

Todd, who has much experience in television in Milwaukee and Los Angeles, returns to Milwaukee from L.A. where he most recently served as director of marketing and corporate giving for the Orange County affiliate of Susan G. Komen for the Cure.

"My heart has always been in Milwaukee," said Todd, a UWM graduate, in a statement. "This is an amazingly dynamic city full of culture and people who have a vested interest, like me, in seeing it become even better. I'm so excited to be returning in a leadership role with this outstanding performing arts and education organization."

Todd will oversee the financial and administrative management of the MCT, which was founded in 1975, and will work with the company's staff and board.
