March 30: Jackie Nytes

By on March 25, 2021

March is Women’s History Month. To commemorate the vital role of women in culture and society, the Rotary Club of Indianapolis has hosted women speakers from a wide range of backgrounds who embody the role of “contributor” throughout the month. 

Join us on Tuesday via Zoom to hear from Jackie Nytes the CEO of The Indianapolis Public Library. In January 2012, Nytes began her tenure as the 14th director in The Indianapolis Public Library’s illustrious history dating back to 1873. Prior to her current association with Indianapolis Public Library, Nytes served as  Associate Director of Management Services and then Chief Financial Officer from 1988 to 2001. In between those chapters, Nytes served 12 years as an elected member of the Indianapolis City-County Council, as well as a five-year term as Executive Director of the Mapleton-Fall Creek Development Corporation in Indianapolis. Nytes was Director of the Carmel-Clay Public Library in Carmel, Indiana from 1981-1988. She is a graduate of the University of Wisconsin where she received a BA in Political Science and Masters in Library Science.  

Her current civic engagement includes serving on the Boards of the Indianapolis Symphony Orchestra, the Immigrant Welcome Center, the Indianapolis Chamber of Commerce, and the Temple Bethel Restoration Committee. She is a recipient of the Sagamore of the Wabash and has served as an International Homestay family since 1987, hosting over 130 international students in her home. These relationships have resulted in a deep appreciation for the value of the immigrant experience and the richness of cultures beyond our shores as we seek to build a truly inclusive city!
 All are welcome at Rotary programs.
