The Los Angeles Board of Harbor Commissioners has welcomed new member Beatrice Hsu.
Hsu was appointed by Karen Bass, Mayor of Los Angeles, and confirmed by the Los Angeles City Council on 16 June.
The five-member commission oversees the governance and operations of the Port of Los Angeles.
Hsu, a real estate executive and community leader, replaces John A. Pérez, who stepped down from the role to join the City of Los Angeles Fire Commission.
Karen Bass, Mayor of Los Angeles, said: “Bea Hsu has the experience, leadership and commitment to Los Angeles to serve on the Harbor Commission and continue the important work happening at the Port of Los Angeles. As an economic engine for our city, region and country, our Harbor Commissioners play an important role in executing a forward-looking vision that keeps the port competitive in the global economy. I’m confident that Bea Hsu will help achieve that goal.”
