Please join us on May 20th as John Kromer discusses his findings in his recently published book Philadelphia Battlefields: Disruptive Campaigns and Upset Elections in a Changing City.

John Kromer is a consultant, author, and lecturer who specializes in strategic planning, public agency capacity building, and program and policy development for urban communities and metropolitan regions.

As the City of Philadelphia's Director of Housing (1992-2001), John supervised the expenditure of more than a billion dollars in public investment in support of housing preservation and development activities that improved living conditions for thousands of Philadelphia families. As a consultant since that time, he has helped design and implement housing and economic development plans for downtowns and neighborhoods in many postindustrial cities. He teaches a popular fall-semester course in "The Politics of Housing and Urban Development" at Penn.

John is the author of Philadelphia Battlefields: Disruptive Campaigns and Upset Elections in a Changing City (Temple University Press, 2020) and Fixing Broken Cities: The Implementation of Urban Reinvestment Strategies (Taylor & Francis, 2010)
