RAPAPORT... The Gemological Institute of America (GIA) elected industry
veteran Dione Kenyon as chair of its board of governors.
Kenyon (pictured), who recently retired as president and chief
executive officer of the Jewelers Board of Trade, will take over the role from
John Green, president and CEO of jewelry chain Lux Bond & Green, who
remains on the board.
Barbara Dutrow, a geology professor at Louisiana State
University, and Stephen Kahler, senior vice president of global sales for
Swarovski Gemstones, were inducted as new members of the board.
Meanwhile, Glenn Nord, a former president of the GIA and
a board member since 1983, was named governor emeritus.
The appointments were confirmed at the GIA’s November board
meeting at its headquarters in Carlsbad, California.
