He will maintain his residence in Aspen, Colorado with his partner Alan Fletcher, an accomplished composer and President of the Aspen Music Festival and School, and will commute regularly to Washington, DC.

Mr. Schiller succeeds Mark Vogelzang, former President and CEO of Vermont Public Radio, who has served as NPR’s Interim VP of Development. “We are grateful to Mark for his leadership this past six months,” said Ms. Schiller. “NPR is on course to meet this year’s revenue goals despite a tough economic climate, and Mark has effectively set the stage for the next phase in our growth.”
