The Arts & Entertainment Organizer will work with The Public Interest Network staff to identify opportunities to engage members of the arts, music, and entertainment community in such actions as campaign endorsements and sign-on letters; news conferences, lobby days and fundraisers; and video projects like US PIRG's Mad Fast Trains video with Mad Men stars Vincent Kartheiser and Rich Sommer.

The Organizer will take on responsibility and oversight for all our entertainment outreach, and will be responsible for recruiting and overseeing staff and volunteers.

The Organizer will build media visibility and promote our issues with the entertainment industry.
