Co-founder, See Forever Foundation, and Chair, Maya Angelou Public Charter School
James Forman grew up in Atlanta, Georgia, where he graduated
from Franklin D. Roosevelt High School. After earning his
undergraduate degree from Brown University, he received
a law degree from Yale Law School, where he served as an
editor for the Yale Law Journal. Forman clerked
for Supreme Court Justice Sandra Day O'Connor. Upon completing
his Supreme Court clerkship, he joined the Public Defender
Service in Washington, DC, where he developed a keen interest
in juvenile justice and the challenges facing young people
and their families in the inner city. While working in Washington,
he helped to found and build an education and job training
project for children in the juvenile justice system, a program
that evolved into the Maya Angelou Public Charter School,
for which he continues to serve as Board Chairman.
Forman is now applying his expertise in law, juvenile justice,
education, and the challenges facing families and children
in the inner city to a series of writing projects. His writing
will explore solutions to the political, economic, and cultural
problems that block the successful reform of public education.
He will alsoand examine the role charter schools might play
not only in rebuilding public education but alsoas a mechanism
for the development of inner-city communities.
