PITTSBURGH--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Pennsylvania American Water, a subsidiary of American Water (NYSE: AWK), announced today that its president, Mike Doran, has joined the board of directors of Pittsburgh Works Together – a Pittsburgh-based coalition of labor, business and civic leaders.

"As the water or wastewater provider for nearly 550,000 people in Allegheny and Washington counties and a proud union employer, Pennsylvania American Water is aligned with Pittsburgh Works Together's mission of a strong economy fueled by responsible industries that value workers and the environment," said Mike Doran, president of Pennsylvania American Water and senior vice president of American Water's Mid-Atlantic Division.

Pennsylvania American Water employs approximately 650 unionized employees in Pennsylvania – more than half of its total workforce.
"Having a company with the stature of Pennsylvania American Water join our coalition is a testament to our shared vision for our region and the progress we've made in pushing this vision forward," said Jeff Nobers, executive director of Pittsburgh Works Together.
