Apple® today announced that Monica Lozano, president and CEO of
College Futures Foundation, has been elected to Apple’s board of
directors. Lozano brings with her a broad range of leadership
experience in the public and private sectors, as well as a long and
storied track record as a champion for equity, opportunity, and
representation.
Prior to joining College Futures Foundation, Lozano spent 30
years in media as editor and publisher of La Opinión, the largest
Spanish-language newspaper in the US, helping shine a light on
issues from infant mortality to the AIDS epidemic. She went on to
become chairman and CEO of La Opinión’s parent company, ImpreMedia.
Lozano continues to serve on the boards of Target Corporation and
Bank of America Corporation.
“Monica has been a true leader and trailblazer in business,
media, and an ever-widening circle of philanthropic efforts to
realize a more equitable future — in our schools and in the lives
of all people,” said Tim Cook, Apple’s CEO. “Her values and breadth
of experience will help Apple continue to grow, to innovate, and to
be a force for good in the lives of our teams, customers, and
communities.”
“Monica has been a pioneer in every organization fortunate
enough to benefit from her vision and expertise,” said Arthur
Levinson, Apple’s chairman. “After a thorough and fruitful search,
I couldn’t be more confident in the positive impact Monica will
have on our board and Apple as a whole.”
“I’ve always admired Apple’s commitment to the notion that
technology, at its best, should empower all people to improve their
lives and build a better world,” said Lozano. “I look forward to
working with Tim, Art, and the other board members to help Apple
carry those values forward and build on a rich and productive
history.”
Throughout her accomplished career as a business leader, public
servant, and philanthropist, Lozano has made an indelible impact on
companies and communities in the US and around the world, earning
awards from organizations like The Leadership Conference on Civil
and Human Rights and the United States Hispanic Chamber of
Commerce.
In her role as CEO of College Futures Foundation, Lozano has
been a tireless advocate for expanding access to higher education,
partnering with philanthropic organizations, state and local
governments, and local communities to improve opportunity for
low-income students and students of color.
Lozano is a co-founder of the Aspen Institute Latinos and
Society Program, and a former chair of both the University of
California Board of Regents and the board of directors of the
Weingart Foundation, a private philanthropic organization. Lozano
is also a former board member of The Walt Disney Company.
