Lee Fisher
CEO, Center
for Families and Children

Dear Colleagues:
Many of you know Lee Fisher as the former Attorney
General of the State of Ohio and Democratic candidate
for Governor in 1998. A few may know him as their
instructor in a SAGES seminar about the Presidential
election during this past Fall. But his main job these
days is as the CEO of the Center for Families and
Children (c4fc.org), one of the major human services
nonprofit organizations in Cuyahoga County.
There’s a lot of talk about differences between the
public sector and the private sector and the
“independent sector” of nonprofit organizations. But as
a former practicing attorney and politician, and now
part of the leadership team of a major nonprofit, Lee
Fisher is in especially good position to reflect on the
differences. So please join us for the Friday Public
Affairs Lunch on February 18, from 12:30 to 1:30 p.m. in
Room 14 of Crawford Hall. Lee will comment on “Life at
the Intersection: Perspectives and Lessons Learned From
a Life Lived at the Intersection of the Public, Private,
and Nonprofit Sectors.”
As usual, cookies and beverages will be provided, lunch
is brown bag, and please bring your opinions as well as
your lunch!
Best regards,
Joe White
