From IMDb:
Two-time Oscar winner Tom Hanks has been elected as one of the vice presidents of America's Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences (AMPAS). AMPAS announced Hanks' appointment on Wednesday after he previously served as a governor of their actors branch. Meanwhile, film producer Sid Ganis was re-elected president for his third term. Ganis enthuses, "I'm truly honored to have the opportunity to continue to serve as president of the Academy. There are so many interesting projects going on in the organization. I'm excited to have the chance to help steer those along and to bring even more to our wide-reaching agenda." AMPAS is the body responsible for awarding the Academy Awards.
Sigh. As if he weren't already a class act.
