The Writers Guild of America West announced the winners of its 2025 officer and board elections on Tuesday, with “Medium” writer Travis Donnelly elected vice president and “Wizards of Waverly Place” executive producer Peter Murrieta as secretary-treasurer.
Donnelly and Murrieta will serve alongside incoming president Michele Mulroney, who ran unopposed to succeed outgoing president Meredith Stiehm. Mulroney has served as WGAW vice president since 2021 and was a key negotiator for the guild during its 2023 strike.
In addition, eight members were elected to the guild’s board for two-year terms. The winners include incumbents Adam Conover, Molly Nussbaum, Rob Forman and Maggie Levin alongside newcomers Matt Ross, Mike Royce, Myles Warden, and Marguerite MacIntyre.
A ninth member, Cathryn Humphris, was elected to a one-year term to fill in the board seat vacated by Donnelly due to his VP election.
