Governor Edward Rendell

Edward Rendell has had a long career in public service, including serving two terms each as District Attorney of Philadelphia, Mayor of Philadelphia, and as Governor of Pennsylvania. During his time as mayor of Philadelphia in the 1990s, he helped pull the city out of extreme financial crisis, a feat called “the most stunning turnaround in recent urban history.” Today Gov. Rendell is a partner at the law firm of Ballard Spahr, LLP, where his practice focuses on public-private partnerships (P3) and housing, with an emphasis on infrastructure. He also sits on a number of boards and works to promote advances in the areas of alternative energy, government efficiency, and infrastructure investment.

This week on Chicago Policy Radio, Julie Cooper speaks with former Pennsylvania Governor and Philadelphia Mayor Edward Rendell about how all levels of government can work together to implement policy more efficiently and effectively, particularly in the crucial area of infrastructure development.

This podcast was edited and produced by Julie Cooper.
