Lottery Names New Director

The West Virginia Lottery’s assistant director has been named acting director. Gov. Earl Ray Tomblin says John Myers assumes his new duties now and fills the vacancy created by the retirement of John Musgrave, who served as director for more than 19 years. Myers has been the lottery’s assistant director since 2008. Before that, he was the manager of corporate administration for Toyota Motor Manufacturing West Virginia. He also worked for American Electric Power for 17 years.
