FCC's Kevin Martin Joins Patton Boggs
September 30, 2009
Kevin Martin, former Federal Communications Commission chairman, has joined Patton Boggs where he will work at the law and lobbying firm's telecommunications and technology practice. Martin starts at the firm early next month and will oversee the practice with Jennifer Richter. Richter is also slated to become co-chair Patton Boggs' public policy practice.
Martin was named to the FCC as a commissioner in 2001 and was elevated to chairman in 2005 to replace Michael Powell. He resigned from the agency in January of this year and joined the non-profit Aspen Institute. Prior to the FCC, Martin was special assistant to former President George W. Bush for economic policy and served on the White House's National Economic Council.
