Prior to working with CNA Surety, Mr. Fitzgerald served as senior vice president-national surety leader at Travelers Indemnity's Gulf Surety Unit, where he helped streamline the company's underwriting operations.
Mary Jeanne Anderson, vice president, Bonds, said Mr. Fitzgerald's arrival “adds significant depth to our already-strong bond team at The Hanover.”
