Previously, he was the CEO and president of Rave Cinemas, and before that the senior vice president of North American field operations for AMC, the company at which he began his career in 1975.
“We are extremely honored to present Rolando Rodriguez with this award at ShowEast this year. There is no better example in our business that truly represents what this award is all about,” Film Expo Group President Andrew Sunshine said in a press release. “Rolando’s dedication and commitment to the theatrical community is second to none.”
ShowEast, which is celebrating its 35th anniversary this year, will be held from November 8-11 at the Loews Miami Beach Hotel in Florida.
