President Barack Obama has announced his plan to appoint Lynne Benioff, Janet Reilly and Nicola Miner to the board of directors of the Presidio Trust.
The Presidio Trust said Monday the three nominees will take on the roles of departing board members Charlene Harvey, Nancy Hellman Bechtle and William Hambrecht.
Paula Robinson Collins will serve her second term as the board’s vice chair, while John Keker and Alex Mehran will remain on the board, according to Presidio.
Benioff spent five years at OutCast Communications as director of public relations and co-founded residential community Star Community Home in 2011.
Miner is a board member of The Baker Street Foundation, president of the Miner-Anderson Family Foundation and co-founder of Quotidian Gallery.
Reilly is the co-founder of Clinic by the Bay and host and producer of The Mix with Janet Reilly, a monthly news magazine show that airs on NBC Bay Area.
The board of the Presidio Trust, which was formed to convert the former military base in San Francisco into a national park, is composed of six appointees by the U.S. president and one member designated by the Secretary of Interior.
John Reynolds serves on the board as Secretary of Interior’s appointee.
