David S. Harrison is a senior lecturer at the Daniel J. Evans School of Public Affairs at the University of Washington. He currently teaches policy analysis and new program design in the Evans School's Master's in Public Administration program.
Harrison's career has been devoted to creating bridges between the policymaking community, policy researchers, and citizens. He came to the Northwest in 1986 to found and direct the Northwest Policy Center, which for many years provided policy assistance to governmental leaders throughout the region on strategies for economic vitality.

The new program was established by the Northwest Area Foundation. It is focused on policies related to enterprise development, human capital investment, immigration and poverty measurement.
In March of 2005, he was reappointed by Governor Christine Gregoire to serve as Chair of the Washington Workforce Training and Education Coordinating Board, a position he has held since being first appointed by Governor Gary Locke in 2002.
