"Aubrey worked very hard and we're very appreciative of him," Saltzman told Broadway.com. "But the executive committee made a decision at the end of the season to rotate it. I am very honored that they picked me. I want to make them proud."
Saltzman has been a member of the Outer Critics Circle for approximately 20 years and a member of the body's executive committee for the past 15. A New Jersey native and resident, he has written for various online publications and his work can currently be read in U.S. 1 Newspaper in Princeton and the Bergen News Group's Commuter Week.
The Outer Critics Circle is an organization of writers that cover New York theater for out-of-town newspapers, national publications and other media beyond Broadway. They give out the first major awards of the Broadway season. Marjorie Gunner, who served as president of the organization for over two decades, is president emeritus.
