Patriots Point Development Authority (PPDA) announced that Executive Director Dr. Rorie Cartier tendered his resignation effective June 30th, 2022. The state agency’s Board of Directors will immediately begin a search for Dr. Cartier’s successor.
“Due to personal and family needs, I must resign from my position at Patriots Point,” said Dr. Cartier. “It has been a pleasure to serve in this role, and the lessons and experiences gained have been invaluable. I am confident that the museum is on solid footing and will continue to grow, inspire and educate the world on patriotism and honor.”
Dr. Cartier was named executive director in May 2021. Before Patriots Point, he served as museum director for the National Museum of the Pacific War in Texas. He also served as an assistant director of development for the Admiral Nimitz Foundation.
“We’re sorry that Rorie is unable to remain at Patriots Point.
