Mom Congress Advisor: David Markus

David Markus is the editorial director of the George Lucas Educational Foundation, and co-founder of online brands ThriveOnline and TBD.

David is a media innovator, brand builder, and content specialist. His roots are in print journalism where he reported and edited for newspapers and magazines on his way to a seven-year stint as editor in chief of Parenting magazine.

Bringing the virtues of topnotch journalism together with the ever more sophisticated interactivity of the web has become his calling and his challenge at Edutopia.org and Edutopia magazine, a leading source of inspiration and information about what works in public education. Now the fun begins.
