Micron Technology, Inc. director Linnie Haynesworth to retire

Linnie M. Haynesworth has informed Micron Technology, Inc. that she will retire from its board of directors at the annual shareholders meeting expected on January 14, 2027. Her departure takes effect at that meeting.

Once she leaves, the board will consist of eight directors. Haynesworth first joined the board in February 2021, and the company describes her as bringing more than 30 years of technology experience.

Haynesworth's background includes deep expertise in aerospace and cybersecurity. She served on the Governance and Sustainability Committee from 2021 to 2024 and on the Security Committee from 2021 through 2026, chairing the latter from 2024 to 2026. She currently sits on the Audit Committee and the Compensation Committee.

Haynesworth is not standing for reelection. The board has nominated the remaining current directors for reelection at the same meeting: Alexis Black Björlin, Lynn A. Dugle, Steven J. Gomo, T. Mark Liu, Sanjay Mehrotra, A. Christine Simons, Robert H. Swan and MaryAnn Wright.

Sanjay Mehrotra, chairman and CEO of Micron, said, “Linnie has been a valued member of the Micron board, and we are grateful for her service and the perspective she has brought to our discussions since she became a director more than 5 years ago.”

Lynn Dugle, Micron’s lead independent director, said, “I want to thank Linnie for the important contributions she has made to the Micron board, particularly in the areas of cybersecurity and risk management.”
