 Mayor Mark Funkhouser
Mayor Funkhouser began his career as a social worker. He was able to increase the number of people that he could serve by becoming an auditor, first in Tennessee State Government and then in city government. Mark was the City Auditor of the City of Kansas City, Mo., from May 1988 until he took an early retirement in November 2006. While City Auditor, he also was an adjunct professor at Park University, the University of Missouri-Kansas City and the University of Kansas. He continues to teach graduate students in public administration, working to help them become more competent public managers and more effective government and non-profit leaders.
Recently, Mark designed a research project to study government auditing practices around the world. He was able to secure funding for the project through the Institute of Internal Auditors. The legwork for this research was completed this fall and he is currently in the process of writing his findings in a book to be published in 2007. He intends to continue doing research and teaching.
As mayor, Mark will continue his social worker tradition by working to provide for the basic needs of his new bosses -- the 450,000 residents of Kansas City.
