Susan Kohlmann, an experienced litigator in Jenner & Block’s Content, Media & Entertainment practice and a board member for Legal Services NYC, has been elected president of the influential, 24,000-member New York City Bar Association.

Kohlmann’s elevation to the office was unveiled this week at the City Bar’s annual meeting. Association presidents are elected to one-year terms but are customarily elected to stay on for an additional term, City Bar spokesman Eric Friedman said.
