NWLC Staff

Karen Schulman is NWLC’s Director of State Child Care Policy. She researches and writes about child care and early education policies. She received her bachelor’s degree from Williams College and her master’s degree in Public Policy from Duke University. Prior to joining NWLC, she worked at the Children’s Defense Fund. She enjoys spending time with her nieces and nephews and is glad they will grow up thinking there is nothing unusual about a woman being Speaker of the House or running for President.
