ANNOUNCEMENT

Lawrence Mone to Step Down as President of Manhattan Institute in 2019


"I will miss the daily routine of innovative thinking, honest intellectual curiosity, and dedication to solving real problems. The Institute's goal has always been to persuade people that ideas matter — and presented carefully, ideas can ultimately change the world. That is not an ideological position; it's the philosophical underpinning of the Institute, past, present, and future."
