Educated in South Carolina public schools, he graduated from Lamar High School and was a student-athlete at Clemson University, majoring in microbiology. At the age of 20 and during his junior year at Clemson, Mr. Beasley ran for the South Carolina House of Representatives. Upon his election to the House, he transferred to the University of South Carolina, where he received his Juris Doctorate degree from the University of South Carolina School of Law. As a member of the South Carolina House from 1979 through 1992, Mr. Beasley rose quickly through the House leadership, serving as Majority Whip and later as Speaker Pro Tempore of the House and Majority Leader. He was the youngest Speaker Pro Tempore and Majority Leader in the United States. As Chairman of both the Education and Public Works Committee and the Joint Legislative Study Committee on Education, he was a driving force behind critical education reform legislation. Mr. Beasley also served as Vice Chairman of the Joint Legislative Committee on Children. As Chairman of the Education Committee, David Beasley served as an Ex­ Officio member of the Boards of Trustees at the University of South Carolina, College of Charleston, Francis Marion College, Lander College, Winthrop College, South Carolina State College and the Educational Television Network of South Carolina. He also served as Ex-Officio member of the Highway Commission and the Aeronautics Commission. He served on the South Carolina Mining Council, the South Carolina Board of the Fellowship of Christian Athletes and many other com­ munity, civic and statewide committees.

At the age of 42, Mr. Peeler is the immediate past President of the South Carolina Dairy Association. Currently serving the people of South Carolina as Chairman of the State Board of Education, his commitment to education began at the local level, where he served as Chairman of the Cherokee County School Board, and extends to higher education through his service as a former member of the Clemson University Board of Visitors and as a current member of the Clemson University College of Commerce and Industry Advancement Board. A proponent of volunteerism and civic involvement as a solution to our com­ munities' problems, Mr. Peeler has served his local business community as past pres­ ident of the Cherokee County Chamber of Commerce.

BARBARA STOCK NIELSEN Comptroller General State Superintendent of Education THE HON. RICHARD ECKSTROM THE HON. CHARLES MALONY CONDON State Treasurer Attorney General THE HON. BRIGADIER GEN. STAN SPEARS THE HON. D. LESLIE TINDAL Adjutant General Commissioner of Agriculture Nearly two years ago, when David Beasley started running for Governor, he talked about the need to put families first. It quickly became the theme for his campaign and he is determined to make it the focal point of the Beasley Administration, beginning with this Inauguration. David and Mary Wood Beasley asked children around the state to help by cre­ ating the official "Putting Families First" logo for inaugural activities. There were literally thousands of entries from all over South Carolina. Each child sent a spe­ cial message through his or her art. Each child and each family deserves special recognition and a special thank you for participating in the Inaugural. The winning artist is Ryan Bailey, who is a special Inaugural guest today. He is accompanied by his parents Melissa and Greg Bailey and his brother Kevin. They live in Sumter where both boys attend Alice Drive Elementary School. On a day just before Christmas, Melissa Bailey picked her sons up from school and on the way home they saw a green wreath on the door of a church. Ryan and Kevin asked their mom about the significance of a wreath at Christmas. They began talking about the evergreen wreath, how the color stays green no matter what the season and how the circle has no end point. The conversation turned to families and how we all live on no matter what the season ... good times or bad ... through our families. Six year old Kevin- an obvious Lion King fan- jumped up and said "Just like the Circle of Life!" When they got home and Ryan went through his homework packet, he found that Ms. Hoskins, his third grade teacher, had included the Governor-Elect's request for entries in the logo contest. The Baileys made a family project of it. They talked about how all families are different and how children are the very special gifts that families receive, com­ pleting the circle of life. So that's who Ryan put in his creation ... the children. J~-fiommtittee John S. Rainey, Chairman Fred Allen Mr. & Mrs. David R. Hiott Richard B. Allen Mr. & Mrs. Van D.

  • David M. Beasley WFP Executive Director
    David M. Beasley WFP Executive Director As Executive Director of the World Food Programme, Mr. David Beasley continues his life’s work bridging political, religious and ethnic boundaries to champion economic development and education. At WFP, Mr. Beasley is putting to use four decades of leadership and communications skills to mobilise more financial support and public awareness for the global fight against hunger. That fight is ever more critical now, with hunger rising because of persistent conflict and the impact of climate change. Under Mr Beasley’s leadership, WFP kept four countries from slipping into famine in 2017. Mr Beasley is also driving greater focus and attention to WFP’s work beyond emergency food assistance, highlighting the fact that longer term development can bring peace and stability to troubled regions. Before coming to WFP in April 2017, Mr Beasley spent a decade working with high-profile leaders and on-the-ground programme managers in more than 100 countries, directing projects designed to foster peace, reconciliation and economic progress. He travelled to as many as 30 countries a year, organizing, leading or participating in conferences and missions in Kosovo, South Sudan, Sudan, Tunisia and Yemen, among others. His work has allowed him to develop deep relationships with leaders around the world. As Governor of the U.S. state of South Carolina from 1995 to 1999, Mr Beasley guided the state during years of economic transformation, helping to reshape the state’s economy into a healthy, diverse and robust market. The work led to one of the lowest unemployment rates in the country, with a dramatic increase in private sector capital investment.
