Former Saks Fifth Avenue, Beverly Hills director of marketing Heather Shuemaker joined the Simi Valley-based Ronald Reagan Presidential Foundation this month as director of initiatives and events for the Ronald Reagan centennial celebration. She will work on behalf of the foundation to plan and execute the efforts surrounding the centennial of Ronald Reagan’s birth on February 6, 2011.
The Ronald Reagan Centennial Commission Act—which the congress passed and President Obama signed last year—allows for a full year of events, programs, and initiatives to commemorate the date.
Shuemaker held the Saks position for 14 years.
