About Ed Rendell
Governor Rendell recently penned his first book, A Nation of Wusses: How America’s Leaders Lost the Guts to Make Us Great.  In A Nation of Wusses, Rendell chronicles his storied political career with his trademark candor while making a strong statement about the state of American leadership.

Rendell served two terms as Governor of Pennsylvania (2003-2011) and two terms as Mayor of Philadelphia (1992-2000). His successful term as Mayor earned him the nick name “America’s Mayor.”  Before serving as Mayor, Rendell was elected District Attorney of Philadelphia for two terms from 1978 through 1985. He also served as Chairman of the Democratic National Committee during the 2000 Presidential election.  He currently sits on several boards, is a Brookings Fellow and teaches government and politics courses at the University of Pennsylvania.  He has become a champion for progress in the area of alternative energy as consultant and/or board member for several green and alternative energy firms including Own Energy, Element Partners and Ocean Thermal Energy.
