In 1939, he was\nappointed the first Director of the Massachusetts Airport Commission, a\nposition he held until his retirement in the late 1970s. Over the years, he was\nresponsible for many successful recommendations regarding airport and air\ntraffic improvements throughout the country and worldwide.&#8221; Widor\nconcluded, &#8220;Ms. Cummings reflects a passion for airport management and\nsolid career goals as she follows in the footsteps of Crocker Snow.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Massachusetts Airport Management Association (MAMA) is a\nnon-profit membership-based trade organization that promotes the economic and\neducational benefits of the aviation industry and provides scholarship support\nto aviation management students.
