Orchestra Board Elects New Chairman

His term starts in September, though he has already begun laying the groundwork for his agenda. Joseph Jacovini, who has been acting board chair since the early departure of Harold A. Sorgenti, will continue in his role until Worley takes over.

Worley, 63, an investment advisor, is married to lawyer Leslie Anne Miller, who has led the Kimmel Center in various roles. In their philanthropy, social life and public service, the couple has been active in arts groups for decades, and Worley is expected to involve his wife as a partner in his new role at the orchestra.
