Mark Shriver Biography

Mark Kennedy Shriver, the son of Sargent and Eunice Kennedy Shriver, is a former Maryland state legislator, a leader in children's education and poverty prevention, and the author of "A Good Man: Rediscovering My Father, Sargent Shriver," a New York Times best-seller. He serves as the Senior Vice President of Save the Children, U.S. Programs and Advocacy, and President of the Save the Children Action Network, focusing on expanding educational and emergency response programs to aid children across the United States.

From 1995 to 2003, Shriver served as a member of the Maryland House of Delegates. During his tenure, he was Maryland's first-ever Chair of the Joint Committee on Children, Youth, and Families, and was recognized multiple times as Outstanding Legislator of the Year by various advocacy and civic organizations. He also led a national coalition that successfully advocated for the creation of the National Commission on Children and Disasters, and subsequently chaired this commission.

In 1988, Shriver founded The Choice Program, an innovative intervention project for at-risk youth, through the Shriver Center at the University of Maryland. He has been involved in numerous boards and commissions, including the Federal Emergency Management Agency's National Advisory Council. His book "A Good Man," published in June 2012, not only explores the moral principles that guided his father, Sargent Shriver, but also discusses how these principles have influenced his own work and advocacy in children's education and poverty prevention.

Shriver's commitment to public service and his extensive experience in both legislative advocacy and hands-on program development make him a profound speaker on social justice and childhood education. In his talks, he shares how the legacy of his father impacts his ongoing work, inspiring others to contribute positively to society and support the well-being of children nationwide.

  • Eradicating Poverty Through a Commitment to Public Service

    Following in his father Sargent Shriver's footsteps, Mark Kennedy Shriver has dedicated his life to improving the lives of children and eradicating poverty. With a deep sense of compassion and commitment to social justice, Shriver, a former Maryland legislator, inspires audiences to continue the war on poverty at a time when the recession has hit vulnerable populations the hardest. One in four children in the U.S. now live in poverty, more than there have been in generations. Shriver shares with audiences his strategies, both personal and professional, for creating programs and policies that create systemic change -• by providing better resources, better employment opportunities, and investment in early childhood education, among other efforts.

  • Make a Difference: Leading with Caring and Compassion

    What have you done today to help the world? As Mark Kennedy Shriver's inspirational leadership at Save the Children has shown, one person can make a difference, and he inspires audiences to do just that in this uplifting keynote. Drawing on his experience as an elected official, humanitarian, and non-profit leader, Shriver shares the lessons he has learned throughout his life and career that contribute to improving the lives of others, especially disadvantaged children and youth in impoverished regions across the world. Audiences will be moved by his message of how they can show care and concern for the world around them by taking real action and lending a helping hand.

  • A Good Man.

    Shriver’s book, A Good Man, is a tribute to his father – the man who was the driving force behind the Peace Corp, the Job Corps, and Head Start, and, in his presentations, Mark Shriver recalls how after a lifetime searching for the path to his father’s success, he turned his aim to the hunt for his father’s joy. Shriver’s message is an important reminder of what’s important in life, and a prescription for how individuals, companies, and mission organizations can make a lasting difference. His message is uplifting, and his speech is full of poignant and funny anecdotes. He also describes the three guiding principles that can be applied to anyone: faith, hope, and love. According to Shriver, these comprise the DNA of a successful career, a happy family, and a meaningful life.
