Timothy G. Hermach, President and Founder

With a degree in Finance and Management and more than 20 years in business, Tim Hermach left the corporate world in 1987 to devote his energies to the defense of our nation's publicly owned forests, rivers and streams. As president of Native Forest Council, he has risen to national prominence as the uncompromising leader in the struggle to save our publicly owned lands. His arguments and solutions are based on sound environmental economics and upon business and employment that builds rather than destroys public wealth. He has published opinions in The Washington Post and The New York Times. He has appeared on CBS Evening News and ABC's PrimeTime Live, has been featured in Newsweek and the Chronicle of Philanthropy and is featured in Anne Becher's book of American Environmental Leaders.
