Board of Directors
Ann Asprodites - President
Asprodites Reps
Anyone who knows Ann Asprodites knows she loves her job. Ann’s start was at an agency so small that responsibilities included concept, copy, production and client service. When the first full-service post house in the Southeast opened with one of the first telecines east of Texas (remember them?) Ann jumped industries to handle national sales. After garnering clients from across the country she moved into production, again in national sales, growing Morrison Productions from a regional shop to a tri-coastal presence.
After 13 years, with a handful of directors and a music house, Ann started Asprodites Reps. Since then, Asprodites Reps has thrived and grown and Ann has maintained her love of the industry and craft, respect for the clients, and delight in the relationships.
The Asprodites household in New Orleans includes husband Randy, an abstract painter and art educator, and Bounder, the golden-eyed pup. When she is not working, traveling, hanging with friends or reading, Ann spends time with her barn buddies jumping her Thoroughbred mare, Maggie the Cat.
