AIS Directors; present and past

Each director is elected to a three year term. Contact information for current directors can be found on the AIS website: https://www.irises.org/about-ais/leadership/

Those Directors that held the position of AIS President have links to their president's page in the AIS Encyclopedia.

In addition to election for a 3-year term, directors are also appointed to fill out terms for those who do not complete their term. They are represented as Initial Director/Filling Director.
