The ESA, the organisation dedicated to serving the business and public affairs of the US videogame industry, has hired Rich Taylor as its new senior VP for communications.

Taylor was formerly a senior VP for the Motion Picture Association of America, an organisation which "shares many of the same goals such as promoting intellectial property rights and reducting piracy across the world," according to MPAA CEO Dan Glickman.

"Rich will undoubtedly be a great asset to the Entertainment Software Association," he added.

Taylor was also previously an aide to Congressman Jim Chapman (D-Texas).

"The ESA and the videogame industry are very lucky to have Rich aboard," said ESA CEO Michael D. Gallagher. "Rich's expertise and extensive experience in communications are a perfect match for the investment, innovation, and creativity of the video game industry."
