Bronwen Murray is the Executive Director of SAG-AFTRA’s Colorado and New Mexico Locals, which also serves Wyoming and El Paso, Texas. She brings to the role a distinctive background spanning public policy, the performing arts, and political consulting.

At the New Mexico Legislature, Murray played a central role in advancing landmark reforms, including eliminating out-of-pocket costs for behavioral health treatment and securing passage of a firearm safe-storage law later recognized by Vice President Kamala Harris at the White House. As a homicide survivor, she brings resilience and a lived commitment to justice to her leadership.

Her career includes work on campaigns nationwide, from Hillary Clinton’s 2016 presidential race in New Hampshire to U.S. Senator Jacky Rosen’s 2018 campaign in Nevada. As a consultant, she has advised and managed more than forty elections with a rare record of success — winning every one.

Murray became eligible to join SAG in 1995 for her role in Disney’s Tom & Huck and has continued performing in film and television while producing entertainment projects. Her dual careers in politics and the arts reflect her belief in the power of both to shape communities and transform lives.

She holds a Master of Science from Northwestern University and graduated summa cum laude with a Bachelor of Arts from Auburn University. A classically trained opera singer, she is also an avid gardener, crafts barista-worthy drinks on her Rocket espresso machine, and is a dedicated cinephile with a passion for classic films and a collection of more than one hundred 4K restorations.
