Bullitt Environmental Fellowship Selection Panel

Michael Parham, Fellowship Selection Panel Chair

Associate General Council at RealNetworks, Inc., serves on the Boards of Directors of the Seattle Public Library, Pike Place Market, and Bullitt Foundations.

Message from the Chair

The Bullitt Foundation has a strong interest in helping to create a more diverse set of leaders in the environmental field. This prize is intended for exceptional individuals from underrepresented communities who possess a capacity for leadership and who show exceptional scholarship. Establishment of this fellowship is based on the understanding that if America is ever again to hope for a leadership role on global and environmental issues, it must produce environmental leaders who resemble a majority of the world’s inhabitants. In establishing the Environmental Leadership Fellowship, we are providing more opportunity and support for such leadership to emerge.
