Guest Speaker: Wellington E. Webb, Former Mayor of Denver Colorado

Wellington Webb spent 12 years as Denver's mayor, helping to lift it out of the economic doldrums by investing $7 billion in infrastructure. Prior to being elected mayor, he served in the Colorado State Legislature; was appointed a Regional Director of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services under President Jimmy Carter; was appointed Executive Director of Colorado's Department of Regulatory Agencies under Governor Richard Lamm; and was elected Denver's city Auditor. As a statesman, Webb hosted Pope John Paul II. Four years later, he welcomed President Clinton and eight world leaders at the Denver Summit of the Eight, an annual economic summit. His numerous recognitions include the U.S. Conference of Mayors highest honor; The Americans for the Arts Government Leadership in the Arts; The National Wildlife Federation's Achievement Award; The National Trust for Historic Preservation's ''Outstanding Achievement in Public Policy'' award; and by the country of France the Chevalier de la Legion d'Honneur (Chevalier of the Legion Honor). Webb is the only Mayor in U.S. history to serve as President of the U.S. Conference of Mayors, President of the National Conference of Black Mayors, and President of the National Conference of Democratic Mayors.

In October 2003, he founded Webb Group International which works with businesses and cities on economic development projects, public relations and other consulting areas.
