Bender has served as a director since July 2019, so he certainly knows the ropes and will possibly grow the interim position into a permanent one.<\/p>\n<div class=\"photogallery-wrapper blog-photogallery \">\n<h2 class=\"photogallery-title\">62 Artists Not in the Country Music Hall of Fame<\/h2>\n<div class=\"photogallery-description\">\n<p>Which county singer is most deserving of a Country Music Hall of Fame induction?
