LEE Filters, the premier global provider of filters for photography, cinematography and lighting design, has appointed a trio of industry experts to its North American team. Morgan Prygrocki will be charged with leading the company’s U.S. office as general manager, and Patrick Corcoran and Richard Andres will serve in business development roles for the west and east coasts, respectively.

Paul Mason, LEE Filter’s managing director, says, “As LEE Filters continues its worldwide growth, the addition of Morgan, Patrick and Richard demonstrate our commitment to the U.S. market. These talented industry professionals bring a broad range of capabilities to enhance our sales and support services to the professional photographic and cinematography communities. We’re excited to continue to build upon our industry-leading position and develop deeper relationships and partnerships throughout the U.S.”

Prygrocki is responsible for all North American business. She comes to LEE with robust industry relationships from her previous senior level roles at Ncam Technologies and RED Digital Cinema. She is based in California at LEE’s Burbank, California, location.

“LEE is a trusted brand and dedicated partner in the industry, and I’m excited to lead our North American team in delivering the highest-quality products and services to our customers. With the addition of Richard and Patrick, we are augmenting our presence within the community of artists and creatives who need top-tier tools.”
