ICM Partners has appointed Lorrie Bartlett, longtime partner and co-head of the agency’s talent department, to its board of directors. Bartlett joins Esther Newberg, Jennifer Joel and Janet Carol Norton, as the fourth woman on the 12-member ICM Partners Board, and becomes the first African American board member of a major talent agency, according to ICM.

She is a consummate team player, role model and mentor, and will be an active and compelling voice that will make our Board even stronger,” said Chris Silbermann,...
