Sandy La Mantia

Sandy La Mantia was only the third President of Shure. The founder’s wife, Rose, hired Sandy to run the company for which she is still chairperson. The company has had a very significant history in the innovation of microphones, headphones, and speakers. It has also played a vital role in the development of the pro-audio market, beginning rather small in the 1950s. Sandy’s attention to the history of the company was apparent during his interview. In addition, it is clear he followed the leadership of Mr. Shure in developing innovative products, along with maintaining a feeling of family within the company.  Sandy retired in 2017.
