Engage and Lead

A respected attorney, entrepreneur and philanthropist before he entered public service, Richard Riordan was elected mayor of Los Angeles in 1993 and reelected to a second four-year term in a landslide.

From the rebuilding efforts following the riots in 1992 as well as a major earthquake in 1994, Riordan has been considered a transformative mayor. In 1997, more than 60 percent of voters supported his efforts to improve public safety, create quality jobs, and reform public schools. Driven by a passion to create space for others to succeed, Riordan has had a positive impact on countless lives and the fabric of the LA community.
