Roger Bolton ran the Arthur W. Page Society for more than twelve years. His peak compensation was $343,125. His successor has not been named publicly. The Page Society is the professional home of Fortune 500 chief communications officers. Its 990 filings tell a story of institutional stability at modest scale — and a leadership transition the industry barely noticed.
The Arthur W. Page Society — known as Page — is a 501(c)(3) tax-exempt professional association for senior corporate communications executives, founded in 1983 and headquartered in New York. Its members are the chief communications officers and senior communications leaders of the Fortune 500, the world's largest corporations, and leading professional services and consulting firms. It files IRS Form 990 annually under EIN 23-2290568. Everything-PR Research reviewed every available filing from 2014 through 2024 to compile this record.
Roger Bolton served as President and CEO from approximately 2012 through January 2, 2025 — a tenure of more than twelve years. His compensation over that period, per Form 990:
2014 — $292,500
2015 — $325,500
2016 — $333,000
2017 — $326,250
2018 — $306,000
2019 — $306,001
2020 — $343,125 (career peak)
2021 — $333,000
2022 — $295,875
2023 — $258,750
2024 — $292,499 (listed as "Former President & CEO")
Total reported compensation across the eleven-year record: approximately $3.41 million. Average annual: approximately $310,000.
How Bolton's pay compares
Bolton ran the professional home of Fortune 500 CCOs. His pay sat in a band that was:
Roughly two-thirds of the PRSA CEO's pay. Linda Thomas Brooks earned $455,403 at PRSA in 2024. Bolton earned $292,499 in his final year.
Roughly one-seventieth of a normal-year holdco CEO package. John Wren at Omnicom earned $21.69 million in 2024. Bolton earned $292,499.
Roughly 4.4× the median PR specialist salary. The BLS median for SOC 27-3031 is approximately $67,000. Bolton earned $292,499.
The Page Society is a smaller organization than PRSA. But its membership is more senior — the median Page member is a C-suite or SVP-level communications executive at a Fortune 500 company. Bolton's pay was calibrated to the association's scale, not to the seniority of its membership.
The senior staff
Page's 990 filings disclose compensation for officers and key employees earning above $100,000. Two executives have served alongside Bolton for most of the twelve-year window:
Daniel Strouhal — COO / VP
2016 — $137,645 (VP)
2017 — $175,000
2018 — $172,500
2019 — $182,451
2020 — $202,526
2021 — $200,300
2022 — $227,922
2023 — $239,741 (COO)
2024 — $244,364 (COO)
Strouhal's trajectory shows steady growth from $137,645 to $244,364 over nine years — a 78% increase. His title evolved from VP to COO, reflecting expanded operational responsibility. He is the longest-tenured disclosed senior executive at Page across this period.
Eliot Mizrachi — VP, Strategy & Content
2016 — $138,150 (VP)
2017 — $171,000
2018 — $172,500
2019 — $179,151
2020 — $187,836
2021 — $189,972
2022 — $208,681
2023 — $232,048 (VP, Strategy & Content)
2024 — $237,576
Mizrachi's compensation grew from $138,150 to $237,576 — a 72% increase over nine years. Like Strouhal, his title expanded to reflect broader responsibilities.
Other disclosed staff
Carmella Glover, DAA President — $154,680 (2021) to $166,003 (2024). The Diversity Action Alliance (DAA) is a Page-hosted initiative.
Anabella Tinoco, VP Communications & Marketing — $103,500 (2017) to $163,279 (2024). The longest continuous trajectory in the supporting-staff tier — 58% growth over eight years.
Kelly Greene, Chief of Staff — $108,700 (2019) to $132,115 (2024).
Jerrick Haddad, Director of Digital Content — $107,013 (2021) to $119,878 (2024).
Lauren Kramon, Director of Events — $110,027 (2022) to $121,016 (2024).
Marianna Frantzis, Senior Director of Membership — $108,076 (2022) to $132,576 (2023).
Mary Elliott, VP — $154,100 (2016) to $129,290 (2019, partial).
The organization's financial profile
Page is a small organization by revenue. Its financial profile sits well below PRSA and well above most chapter-level associations:
Annual revenue: not publicly broken out in the ProPublica extract for all years, but the organization sustains a staff of approximately 8–12 disclosed employees at total compensation levels suggesting an annual budget in the $3–5 million range.
Membership model: corporate membership fees from Fortune 500 and equivalent companies, not individual practitioner dues.
Primary programs: the annual Page Spring Seminar, the Page Up program for rising CCOs, the CCO Survey, Page Principles advocacy, and the Diversity Action Alliance (DAA).
All Trustees and Board members serve without compensation. That is consistent with PRSA and IABC governance. The leadership of Page — its chair, vice chair, and board — are sitting Fortune 500 CCOs who donate their time.
The Bolton departure
Bolton retired as President and CEO effective January 2, 2025, per the 2024 Form 990 which lists him as "Former President & CEO" with $292,499 in compensation. He had served in the role for more than twelve years — one of the longest tenures of any PR-adjacent nonprofit CEO in the industry.
Before Page, Bolton held senior communications roles at Aetna (where he was SVP of Communications) and served in government. He is known in the industry for his stewardship of the Page Principles — the organization's codified framework for corporate communications ethics and practice, named after AT&T's Arthur W. Page.
His successor has not been prominently announced in the trade press as of this writing. The 2025 Form 990 — which Page will file in 2026 — will disclose the new president's compensation and any transition payments to Bolton.
The structural comparison
Three nonprofit PR-adjacent associations now have standalone compensation records in Everything-PR Research:
PRSA (EIN 13-1582190) — CEO earned $455,403 in 2024; ~$11–12M revenue; ~40 employees; 12-year comp record
Page Society (EIN 23-2290568) — CEO earned $292,499 in 2024; ~$3–5M estimated revenue; ~10 employees; 11-year comp record (this piece)
IABC (EIN 03-4080669) — CEO earns $0 from IABC (outsourced to Smithbucklin); $2.9M revenue; 0 employees; technical insolvency documented
The three organizations serve overlapping but distinct professional populations. PRSA is the broadest — 30,000 individual members across all levels of PR practice. Page is the most senior — corporate CCOs at the Fortune 500 level. IABC is the most global but the most financially distressed.
The pay bands track scale, not seniority of membership. PRSA, the largest, pays the most. Page, mid-sized, pays mid-range. IABC, the smallest and most distressed, pays nothing — its leadership is outsourced.
Roger Bolton earned $292,499 in fiscal 2024, his final year as President and CEO, per IRS Form 990 (EIN 23-2290568). His peak compensation was $343,125 in 2020.
