The founding French Co-President of FRAME was the late Francoise Cachin, who was Director of the Mus\u00e9es de France at that time. Mrs. Rohatyn developed this innovative organization while her husband, Felix G. Rohatyn served as Ambassador of the United States of America to France (1997-2000), appointed by President Clinton. Mrs. Rohatyn engaged Dr. Richard R. Brettell to serve as Founding Director (1999-2009).<\/p><p>Currently, FRAME North America is represented by North American Co-President William Beekman. Christelle Creff is the Co-President for FRAME France.\u00a0 Caite Panzer is the Executive Director for FRAME North America and \u00c9milie Vanhaesebroucke is the Executive Director for FRAME France.<\/p><p>The organization began with 18 member museums and currently includes 32 member museums in France and North America. It is the only network of its kind and FRAME\u2019s commitment to cultural diplomacy in the context of museum exchanges reflects its origins in the U.S. Embassy in Paris, and Mrs. Rohatyn\u2019s vision.<\/p><p>FRAME, a 501(c)(3) non-profit corporation, is supported by the generosity of individuals, foundations, corporations, public subsidies, as well as by its member museums in France and
