The International Textile Alliance (ITA) has announced that Kelly DiFoggio has been named president of the 10-member board of directors of the ITA, producers of the semiannual Showtime Market and governing body of the ITA Educational Foundation. DiFoggio is the first female President of the 29 year old association. Kathryn Richardson, Libeco, will serve as vice president and Mendy Kearns, Hamilton Fabric Sales, as treasurer to complete the first all-female ITA executive committee for the two-year term.

I am looking forward to announcing some new initiatives in the near future that we hope will benefit both our members and the industry we serve.”

Other returning board members include Nathan Copeland, Highland House; Carmen Herndon Barbee, Ballard Designs; David Lappert, Kravet; Dada Patil, Catania Fabrics; Jana Platina Phipps, Classical Elements; Katherine Shoaf, STI; and David Stunda, Barbarossa Leather.
