Kimberly Lannear Named National Museum Of African American Music Communications Manager

The National Museum of African American Music (NMAAM) has named Kimberly Lannear as communications manager. She will assist in communicating museum milestones, events, fundraising opportunities and artifact acquisitions.

Lannear comes to the museum from the Alexandria Library in Alexandria, Virginia, where she secured national media placements in The Washington Post, NBC4 Washington, Fortune Magazine, C-SPAN, and others. As a graduate of the Nashville Entrepreneur Center’s Project Music program, Lannear founded a music-tech startup, Scripturally Sound, which connects scriptures to songs in one simple search, and offers songwriters the opportunity to share the inspiration behind their music.

“NMAAM is proud to expand our communications department with the addition of Kimberly Lannear,” said NMAAM President and CEO Henry Beecher Hicks, III. “Kimberly’s extensive background in media relations and content strategy will be a valuable asset to our team.”
