Bentley Picks Alabama Power CEO to Head Inaugural
MONTGOMERY, Ala. (AP) – Gov. Robert Bentley has selected Alabama Power’s top executive to serve as chairman of his inaugural committee.
Bentley says Mark Crosswhite of Birmingham will be in charge of planning an inauguration that brings people together regardless of political affiliation and that celebrates the things that make Alabama great.
Crosswhite is chairman, president and chief executive officer of Alabama Power.
Bentley’s inauguration will be on Jan. 19. That is the same day as the state holiday honoring civil rights leader Martin Luther King Jr. and Confederate Gen. Robert E. Lee.
