Anne Roosevelt has been named vice president of Community and Education Relations for
Boeing, after serving in that position on an interim basis since 1 January
2006.
Roosevelt fills the vacancy left by the former vice president of Community and Education Relations Antoinette (Toni) Bailey who retired in December.
Roosevelt joined Boeing in 2001 as director of Boeing's community and education activities in Chicago. Angel Ysaguirre, community investment
specialist, will now manage those Chicago activities.
The California-born Roosevelt moved to Chicago in 1983 after eight-years on the faculty of Western Kentucky University, where she taught museum
studies and worked on the staff of The Kentucky Museum.
In 1987, after serving as the first director of the Center for Scandinavian Studies at Chicago's North Park College, Roosevelt refocused her efforts to
pursue her lifelong interest in politics, working for the Democratic National Committee. In 1989 she managed Senator Paul Simon's Chicago office
and his 1990 re-election campaign. The following year, Roosevelt was a consultant for the "Daley for Mayor" campaign. In 1991, she became the first
executive director of the Museums in the Park, an organization representing the political interests of the nine museums located on Chicago Park
District land. From 1996 through 1998, she served as the director of the Mayor's Office of Program Development for the City of Chicago, and in
January 1998 she was named executive director of the Brain Research Foundation, an affiliate of The University of Chicago.
Roosevelt is a graduate of Stanford University, where she earned a Bachelor of Arts degree in art and art history, and holds a Master of Science
degree in library science from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.
