Über den Autor


Bob Graham was elected governor of Florida in 1978 and served two successful terms. He was nationally recognized for reforms in education, environmental protection, and economic diversification. Graham was elected to the U.S. Senate in 1986, serving three consecutive terms. As a member of the Senate Finance Committee, he was a leader on health, trade, and tax issues. One of his most important contributions came during his last term, when he was named chairman on the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence. He cosponsored the bill to create the Director of National Intelligence position and cochaired the Joint Inquiry into Intelligence Community Activities before and after the Terrorist Attacks on September 11, 2001. Graham later authored 2004's Intelligence Matters, revealing serious faults in the U.S. national security system. After retiring from public office in early 2005, Graham spent the 2005-2006 academic year at Harvard University's Kennedy School of Government as a senior fellow. He is focusing his efforts on training the next generation of public leaders by mobilizing the academic resources of the University of Florida to solve public policy challenges facing Florida, the nation, and the Americas.
