Haupt Leaves Conroy Center; Interim Director Named

Jonathan Haupt

The Pat Conroy Literary Center announced last week that Jonathan Haupt, longtime Executive Director of the Center, has resigned.

Haupt helped the Center usher forth during a time when many were still grieving over the loss of Pat Conroy, shortly after Conroy’s death in March 2016. For the past decade he has tirelessly championed Conroy’s works and legacy. He has decided to pursue several passion projects that are close to his heart. The Center’s board, staff, volunteers, writers, and visitors will miss his leadership. The Center wishes Haupt nothing but the best in his new endeavors.

It was also announced that Ginger Olszewski, longtime board member of the Conroy Center, will lead the organization as its Interim Executive Director as search commences for Haupt’s replacement.
