Kennedy Center official confirms he has resigned less than two weeks after hiring
AI Summary
Kevin Couch resigned from his position as senior vice-president of artistic programming at the John F Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts less than two weeks after his appointment was announced on January 16th. Couch confirmed his resignation on Thursday but declined to provide a reason. The Kennedy Center has not commented on the matter. This abrupt departure follows recent leadership changes at the Kennedy Center initiated by Donald Trump, including the installation of a new board of trustees and a proposal to rename the institution. These changes have prompted some artists, including Philip Glass, to cancel performances at the Kennedy Center, and the Washington National Opera to relocate its performances.
