Keynote Speaker Willie Lewis Brown, Jr.

Willie Lewis Brown, Jr. Two-term Mayor of San Francisco, legendary Speaker of the California State Assembly, and widely regarded as the most influential African-American politician of the late twentieth century, Willie L. Brown, Jr., has been at the center of California politics, government, and civic life for an astonishing four decades. His career spans the American Presidency from Lyndon Johnson to George W. Bush, and he's worked with every California Governor from Pat Brown to Arnold Schwarzenegger. From civil rights to education reform, tax policy, economic development, health care, international trade, domestic partnerships, and affirmative action, he's left his imprimatur on every aspect of politics and public policy in the Golden State. As Mayor of California's most cosmopolitan city, he refurbished and rebuilt the nation's busiest transit system, pioneered the use of bond measures to build affordable housing, created a model juvenile justice system, and paved the way for a second campus of the University of California, San Francisco, to serve as the anchor of a new development that will position the City as a center for the burgeoning field of biotechnology. Today, he heads the Willie L. Brown, Jr., Institute on Politics and Public Service, where this acknowledged master of the art of politics shares his knowledge and skills with a new generation of California leaders.

Keynote Speaker Martin Hittelman

Martin Hittelman is the president of the California Federation of Teachers, a vice president of the California Federation of Labor and a member of the American Federation of Teachers Program and Policy Council. Prior to becoming president of the CFT he served as the president of the Community College Council of CFT, the Senior Vice President of CFT, and as a professor of Mathematics at Los Angeles Valley College. .

Hittelman has a BA in mathematics from San Francisco State College and a MA in mathematics from the University of Illinois. He has also attended UC Berkeley, Cal State Los Angeles, UCLA, and Los Angeles City College. He began his teaching career teaching mathematics at Grant High School in Los Angeles in 1964.
