LOS ANGELES (CelebrityAccess) — WME announced that veteran talent agent Lucy Dickins has been named as the agency’s Global Head of Contemporary Music and Touring.
In her expanded role, Dickins will oversee all aspects of WME’s Contemporary Music and Touring business across multiple offices, including Los Angeles, New York, Nashville, London, and Sydney.
