As we celebrate New Orleans’ Tricentennial, we would be remiss not to acknowledge the influential people who’ve shaped our city’s past and are working toward the development of its future. President and CEO of New Orleans Tourism Marketing Corporation Mark Romig was chosen as the recipient of the 2019 Ella Brennan Lifetime Achievement in Hospitality Award.
As an unofficial “ambassador for New Orleans,” Mark’s being recognized for his contributions to the tourism industry over the years. Among many roles, Mark serves as the volunteer president and CEO of the 2018 NOLA Foundation, the nonprofit agency organizing the city’s Tricentennial celebration.
