Governor Jennifer Granholm Joins PBWC Conference Line-Up
Come hear from one of America's most courageous and commanding female leaders! Governor Jennifer Granholm has forged a trailblazing career in politics, in the board room, in the classroom, and on her progressive news show, "The War Room", by confronting the gravest challenges to our nation's economic future.
Granholm served as Michigan's first female Attorney General, before becoming the state's first female Governor in 2002. In 2006, she was re-elected with the largest number of votes ever cast for governor in Michigan. As Governor, Granholm led the state through a brutal economic downturn that resulted from a meltdown in the automotive and manufacturing sectors. She worked relentlessly to diversify the state's economy, strengthen its auto industry, and preserve the advanced manufacturing sector. She also championed new, emerging sectors, such as clean energy, to broaden Michigan's economic portfolio.

After leaving office, Granholm hosted Current TV's political news analysis show "The War Room with Jennifer Granholm." She also co-authored A Governor's Story: The Fight for Jobs and America's Economic Future, which tells how Michigan pioneered ways out of an economic storm and offers proven advice for a nation desperate to create jobs.
