Port of Long Beach Board of Harbor Commissioners elects new president

The Port of Long Beach Board of Harbor Commissioners has elected Bonnie Lowenthal as its newest president for a one-year term.

Lowenthal was previously president from 2019-20 and will serve as vice president until she begins her term on August 5, when the outgoing Commission president Bobby Olvera Jr. will hand the gavel over.

“It is an honour to be elected and serve as president of the Long Beach Harbor Commission,” Lowenthal said. “I look forward to working with my fellow commissioners as we build a port to better serve the residents of Southern California in the decades to come and continue to pursue our trailblazing environmental programs, innovative capital improvements and our ongoing investment in workforce development.”
