Author Information

Mary M. Timney is chair of the Department of Political Science at Pace University. For five years, she was professor of Public Administration at California State University, Hay ward, where she experienced the California electricity crisis firsthand. She has also been on the faculties of the University of Cincinnati and the University of Wisconsin-Green Bay. She holds an AB in chemistry from Bryn Mawr College and Master of Public Administration and Ph.D. in Public and International Affairs from the University of Pittsburgh.An activist in the environmental movement of the 1970s in Pittsburgh, she was environmental research associate for the Western Pennsylvania Conservancy. Later, as executive director of the Allegheny County Environmental Coalition, she implemented two grants from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and developed public education programs on transportation control strategies. While completing her Ph.D. in the early 1980s, she worked as energy project director in the city of Pittsburgh mayor’s office and designed an energy program budgeting system. In 1985, the governor of Wisconsin appointed her to a special task force to develop an energy policy plan. This work served as the base for a funded research project to investigate the development of state energy policies during the 1980s in the absence of federal energy policy leadership.Timney’s research and teaching interests are environmental policy, including environmental justice and sustainable development; public budgeting, public administration theory, and ethics; and public participation.
