SUMMARY:November 5\, 2019:  The National Museum of African American Music  - H. Beecher Hicks\, III\, President & CEO
DESCRIPTION:GUEST SPEAKER:  H. Beecher Hicks\, III \n \n  \nH. Beecher Hicks III’s professional experiences have included work in the private\, public and nonprofit sectors\, where he has focused on building enterprises as a consultant\, banker\, investor and operating executive. Henry is now the president and CEO of the National Museum of African American Music\, or NMAAM (www.nmaam.org). His relationship with the project began in 2010 when he began serving on NMAAM’s board before becoming CEO in 2013. From traditional African drum beats to modern hip-hop\, the 56\,000-square-foot experiential museum will highlight the many contributions African Americans have made to American music and culture. \nAs a former investment banker and current private equity investor\, Henry is first and foremost a deal-maker. His prior banking experience includes roles as an investment banker at Bank of America in Charlotte\, N.C.\, where he closed more than $1 billion in middle market transactions\, as an operating principal with Onyx Capital Ventures\, achieving more than 25 percent top-line growth for his portfolio companies. He currently serves as a partner with private equity group Red Clay Capital Holdings. Henry draws on his business experience to lead NMAAM’s fundraising efforts and provide the museum with a sturdy fiscal foundation. \nIn 1998\, Henry was appointed by President William J. Clinton to be a White House Fellow. In this capacity\, he was senior adviser to the CEO of the Corporation for National and Community Service and launched the AmeriCorps Promise Fellows program on behalf of the president and Gen. Colin Powell. Henry is a member of the boards of directors for Leadership Nashville\, University School of Nashville and Nashville’s Center for Nonprofit Management. He served previously on the board of directors for the Nashville Convention and Visitors Corporation and United Therapeutics Corporation (Nasdaq: UTHR)\, where he served on the audit and compensation committees. \nThe son of a preacher\, he grew up in the church\, where he developed a passion for music. He explored his talents as a member of the Morehouse College Glee Club\, where he earned a scholarship to sing and completed a Bachelor of Arts degree in marketing. After graduating from Morehouse\, Henry continued his education to earn a Master of Business Administration degree in finance from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. His musical passion is a vital asset at NMAAM\, where he combines his financial acumen with the fervor of a musical scholar and fan. He also takes delight in playing tennis and golf\, reading modern biographies and fiction\, and has recently begun DJ’ing local parties. He is married to Crystal\, an elementary educator\, and they are the parents of two young adults. You can find his latest insights on his blog (dreambigthenexecute.com) or on his Twitter account at @hbeecher3. \n\n****This is a private event for Society members and their guests.  If you are interested in becoming a member of the Copyright Society of the South\, contact us today!***
