Deborah Dugan is an American executive who was the first female president and CEO of The Recording Academy. She had served as the CEO of (RED) and president of Disney Publishing Worldwide. She also contributed to the Huffington Post and Forbes.com.

She was CEO of the Recording Academy from August 1, 2019 to January 16, 2020.

Early career

Dugan worked as an attorney on Wall Street.

Career

She also worked for Disney Publishing Worldwide for eight years, becoming president. During her initial years in the music industry, she worked for EMI, Capitol Records and SBK Records.

(RED)

Dugan served as CEO of (RED), co-founded by Bono and Bobby Shriver. The nonprofit foundation is aimed to enlist the help of private companies and citizen in the fight to eradicate AIDS in Sub-Saharan Africa. Under her tenure, (RED)’s campaigns and partnerships included Beats by Dre, Starbucks, Latin America's Claro & Telcel, the Super Bowl, Jimmy Kimmel Live, Snapchat, and Amazon. During this time the foundation also reached $600M for the Global Fund and impacted the lives of 110 million people.

From 2011 to 2015, she contributed to Huffington Post, in 2017 and 2018, to Forbes.com. In 2017 she was awarded PPTOW!'s Nelson Mandela Changemaker Award.

Recording Academy presidency

On May 8, 2019, the board of trustees of The Recording Academy confirmed that Dugan would be its next president and CEO. She began her tenure on August 1, 2019, succeeding Neil Portnow. Dugan was the first woman president of the nonprofit, and her contract was for three years.

On January 16, 2020, Dugan was relieved of her duties as president and CEO and placed on administrative leave, accused of bullying her assistant, whom she inherited from Portnow, resulting in the assistant taking a leave of absence. Recording Academy Chairman Harvey Mason Jr. took over as interim president and CEO. In response, Dugan made claims that the Recording Academy was complicit in corruption, citing "voting irregularities, financial mismanagement, 'exorbitant and unnecessary' legal bills, and conflicts of interest involving members of the academy’s board, executive committee and outside lawyers". On March 2, 2020, The Recording Academy announced that it had officially fired her. A letter was sent to its members informing them of the action which was taken by its Board of Trustees.

Board work

She is on the board of the Moth and creative nonprofit Girl Effect.
