Born in North Adams, Massachusetts, Swift received a Bachelor’s degree in American Studies from Trinity College in 1987 and holds several honorary degrees for her work. Her career as an elected official began in 1991 at age 25 when she was the youngest woman ever elected to the Massachusetts State Senate. She quickly became the youngest woman in Massachusetts Senate history to hold a leadership position, rising to Assistant Minority Leader. Governor Paul Cellucci appointed Swift as Director of the Office of Consumer Affairs and Business Regulation in 1997. Swift was elected Lieutenant Governor in 1998 and became Governor on April 10, 2001, when Cellucci resigned to become the U.S. Ambassador to Canada. After her public service career, Swift provided expert advice and guidance to early stage education companies as the Founder of WNP Consulting, LLC. From 2003-2006, Swift was a General Partner at Arcadia Partners, the leading venture capital firm focused exclusively on the education industry. From 2011 through 2017, she was CEO of Middlebury Interactive Languages. Swift currently serves as the Executive Chair of the Board of Ultimate Medical Academy, a nationally accredited nonprofit healthcare educational institution headquartered in Tampa, Florida. She is a member of the boards of Suburban Propane, a publicly traded propane marketing company, and API, a privately held international study abroad company. Additionally, she serves on the advisory board for the School of Leadership Afghanistan (SOLA), the first girls boarding school in Afghanistan, and as a member of Oxfam’s Sisters on the Planet Ambassadors. Swift served for a decade as a Distinguished Visiting Lecturer in Leadership Studies at Williams College. She continues to speak professionally on women’s leadership, education improvement, and work-family integration. She and her husband Chuck are the proud parents of three daughters, Elizabeth, Lauren, and Sarah. 7 ALPHA BETA KAPPA National Honor Society Alpha Beta Kappa believes in the pursuit of truth and excellence in all fields and hopes to recognize institutions and individuals who have achieved and who hold forth the promise of future growth and service.

  • Representative Robert A. Durand
    Berkshire Woods and Waters: Durand named to Fisheries and Wildlife Board BY GENE C HAGUE, Eagle correspondent Saturday, May 25, 2019 Robert Durand is sworn in as a member of the state's Fisheries and Wildlife Board of Directors by Lt. Gov. Karyn Polito, right, as his wife Nancy watches on. Governor Charlie Baker has named Robert A. Durand, president of Durand & Anastas Environmental Strategies, an environmental consulting and lobbying firm, to the Massachusetts Fisheries and Wildlife Board. Lieutenant Governor Karyn Polito conducted the swearing-in ceremony for the five-year term last Wednesday. State Rep. William “Smitty” Pignatelli, D-Lenox, Chairman of the Joint Committee on Environment, Natural Resources and Agriculture, was one of about 10 Representatives and Senators who attended the swearing in. Smitty said some nice words and reminded everyone of how close Bob was to the late George (Gige) Darey. “I am so pleased and honored to receive this nomination to the board, which has been a part of my life in one way or another for most of my life,” Durand said. “I’m thankful to Gov. Baker and Lt. Gov. Polito for their confidence in me to carry out this vital mission to protect many critical aspects of our natural world, and with it, our quality of life in Massachusetts.” As one of the seven-member board, Durand will represent the Northeast Region, Middlesex and Essex counties, and replaces Fred Winthrop, who resigned from the board last fall. The board has various duties, including writing and overseeing all hunting and fishing regulations, Natural Resources and Endangered Species Act regulations, and is the appointing authority for the director of MassWildlife.

The Paradox of Public Authorities in Massachusetts The Paradox of Massport and Public Authorities in Masspike Massachusetts Richard A. Hogarty This case study provides historical context and fresh perspectives for those seek- ing to understand the ways in which independent authorities operate in Massa- chusetts. More specifically, it examines the controversial performances of two separate authorities that deal with transportation problems. One involves a fail- ure to detect terrorists breaching security at Logan Airport; the other entails a bitter dispute that arose over the delay in raising tolls on the turnpike to pay for the Big Dig project. With both in mind, this study describes the countervailing pressures that converge on the executive branch of state government as it con- fronts the prospect of holding these two authorities accountable.

  • Women Subjects, Women Artists
    WOMEN SUBJECTS, WOMEN ARTISTS IN THE MASSACHUSETTS STATE HOUSE ART COLLECTION Commonwealth of Massachusetts State House Art Commission 2020 Paula Morse, Chair Susan Greendyke Lachevre, Curator ` WOMEN SUBJECTS, WOMEN ARTISTS IN THE MASSACHUSETTS STATE HOUSE ART COLLECTION INTRODUCTION While the Commonwealth’s art collection has been on display at the Massachusetts State House since its opening in 1798, it was not until the early 20th century that women were represented. The first tributes were either symbolic – the Civil War Army Nurses Memorial, added in 1914, - or allegorical, as seen in the personifications of nations in murals dating from 1927 - 1938. In fact, the first statue of a historical female figure, that of Anne Hutchinson, was not accepted by the leadership until 1922. Furthermore, the first portrait of a woman, that of Esther Andrews, added in 1939, was not solicited by the Commonwealth but was offered as a gift by her family. In 1863, Emma Stebbins was awarded the contract for a statue of Horace Mann, one of the earliest public monuments in Boston. Although there were certainly many professional women artists working in Boston during the decades that followed, they did not receive commissions until the turn of the century when $9,000 was appropriated for the programmatic expansion of the portrait collection to fill in the gaps in the display of governors under the Constitution. At that time, Boston was blessed with a talented pool of artists, both male and female, trained at the Boston Museum School and in Europe, from whom copies could be commissioned, since original likenesses of former governors were usually privately owned.
