Howard Fuller

Howard Fuller, a Distinguished Professor of Education and Director of the Institute for the Transformation of Learning at Marquette University in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, was elected to The Johnson Foundation Board of Trustees in June 1999. The institute is a national forum for research, discussion, and advocacy to increase options for parents in transforming K-12 education for their children—its content, methods of teaching, and governing structures. Immediately before his appointment at Marquette University, Dr. Fuller was Superintendent of Milwaukee Public Schools, where he became nationally known for his unending support for fundamental educational reform. He has served as a Senior Fellow at the Annenberg Institute for School Reform at Brown University, and is on the boards of the Transcenter for Youth, the Dorothy Danforth Compton Fellowship, and the Crusade to Save Our Children, Milwaukee.
