Deborah Borda

Deborah Borda is the president and chief executive officer of the Los Angeles Philharmonic. She joined the Los Angeles Philharmonic Association as executive director after serving over eight seasons in the same capacity at the New York Philharmonic.[1]

She graduated from Bennington College with a BA in music in 1971, and from the Royal College of Music.

She has previously served as executive director of the Detroit Symphony Orchestra, president and managing director of the Saint Paul Chamber Orchestra, and both general manager and artistic administrator of the San Francisco Symphony.[2]

Borda is the first David C. Bohnett Presidential Chair of the Los Angeles Philharmonic Association.[3] This title stems from a $10 million endowment made by David Bohnett to the LA Phil in 2014, "in honor of Deborah Borda's continuing accomplishments with the Los Angeles Philharmonic."[4][5][6]
