Episode Synopsis

Buses, trollies, subways and ferries can be key to a lively and sustainable community. But it’s not easy to develop this kind of urban infrastructure. It typically takes carefully crafted public/private partnerships, requiring coordination across geography, political bodies, social issues and areas of expertise.
On this episode of Jazzed About Work, Bev talks with Sherry Little, a founding partner at Cardinal Infrastructure, a firm which helps to guide all the interested parties through the development of transport projects.
From the time she was a student, Sherry knew she wanted to work with this kind of public issue. She came to Washington right after grad school, and quickly worked her way to a top staff job on “the Hill”. With 13 years of senior experience in the Senate, she then went on to run the Federal Transit Administration through the end of the Bush Administration.
Sherry talks with Bev about how she has built her career, and offers insights about how others might follow a similar path.
