Executive Board Members

Sis. Selena A. Fields – President

I joined the then BFMVA back in the 90’s to support Bermudian Entertainment. I served as the General Secretary and was a part of the evolution team of Executives, under the Guidance of Stuart Hayward, Shine Hayward and Leroy Simmons who helped to shape the BEU as it is known today.

As President, I am pleased to see the growth of our Bermuda Entertainment Union and look forward to us going and growing from Strength to Strength!

United We Stand! Divided we fall. Peace & Blessings in Solidarity, Brothers and Sister

Sis. Toni Robinson- Vice President

The Bermuda Entertainment Union is important in that it serves to protect the interests of Bermudian Artists; to educate and promote local talent and provide the tools for every Artist to do what they do, with excellence.

Sis. Sosina Mekonnen – Treasurer

 

 

 

Sis. Sandra Gilbert – Administrative Secretary

 

 

 

Sis. Aisha S. Trott- Public Relations Officer

Being a Part of the BEU has shown me just how important representation is for Artists at all levels. 

 

 

 

Member at Large

Sis. Olive Furbert

Being a self-acclaimed singer and choir director for many years, I was encouraged by fellow union members to join BFMVA, now known as, BEU. Having two daughters of my own who are involved in music and theatre, I became more conscious of our rights being protected and the benefits being made available to us as Union Members. In my second year of membership I was elected as the Treasurer of the Union, and held that post for many years. Being a Union Member has its privileges.

Sis. Cherann Brangman

I believe in the concept and ideals of a union. Unity is Strength! Individually we are weak, collectively we are strong. The BEU provides local entertainment professionals with a powerful, collective voice to communicate their dissatisfaction and frustration to the powers that be in Bermuda.
