Welcoming Karyn Temple to the Motion Picture Association
March 3, 2020
Tonight, we officially welcomed our Senior Executive Vice President and Global General Counsel, Karyn A. Temple.
Temple joined the association in January after serving more than eight years in the U.S. Copyright Office, most recently as the Register of Copyrights, where she fulfilled her statutory authority to administer U.S. copyright law and advise members of the U.S. Congress, federal courts, and executive branch agencies on issues of copyright law and policy.
