WHY IT RATES: The U.S. Travel Association is honoring some of the most influential people in the industry.—Donald Wood, Breaking News Senior Writer.


Travel industry leaders Roger Dow, former president and CEO of the U.S. Travel Association, Elliott L. Ferguson, II, president and CEO of Destination DC, and Peter F. Herschend, co-founder of Herschend Enterprises, were inducted into the U.S. Travel Association Hall of Leaders on Wednesday.

Dow, Ferguson and Herschend were honored at a dinner attended by more than 100 U.S. Travel board members and guests in Washington, DC.

Distinguished individuals are named to the U.S. Travel Association’s Hall of Leaders for sustained, noteworthy contributions that have positively impacted the travel industry and raised industrywide standards. 

To date, 106 individuals have been named to the Hall of Leaders, U.S. Travel’s highest honor.
