Davis, Susan A.
Susan A. Davis is chairman of Susan Davis International based in Washington, D.C. She is also chair of the board of Vital Voices Global Partnership, a worldwide organization founded by now Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton.
Davis, a native of Wisconsin, is Irish through her great grandparents, who came to America during the Famine from counties Cork and Clare. Her business is heavily involved in Irish business and philanthropic interests.
A lifelong advocate for democracy building, social entrepreneurship and leadership development for women, Davis has been lauded for her leadership on Northern Irish issues, and for chairing the landmark U.S. Ireland Business Summit. Among her many board memberships are positions with University College Dublin, the Washington Ireland Program for Service and Leadership and the Irish Breakfast Club.
“Over the years, my interest and involvement with island of Ireland from a cultural, business and philanthropic perspective has grown steadily,” says Davis, who travels to Ireland between six and eight times a year.
“It gives me great pleasure to introduce succeeding generations in our family to their own history and heritage. Now I am happily at home on either side of the Atlantic!”
