The Abraham Lincoln Presidential Library and Museum has announced the appointment of Mark Mahoney as chief of staff.
Mahoney most recently worked for the Illinois Department of Central Management Services, was the director of the Office of Public Works for the City of Springfield, and served on the Springfield City Council from 2003-2011 as the Ward 6 alderman.
“There’s no greater symbol of Illinois than Abraham Lincoln, and this library and museum is a leader in sharing his legacy with the world,” he said. “It also plays a key role in central Illinois tourism and contributes to Springfield’s economic and cultural vitality. I am very excited to be part of such a great team that works tirelessly to share our history with tens of thousands of visitors every year from all over the world.”
