The hire is part of a restructuring of Walker senior management by Executive Director Olga Viso.

Galligan initially left the Walker to take on the position of President and Ceo of the Ordway Center for the Performing Arts, a position he held for four years. Since then he's worked as a management consultant for several national organizations.
