Molly Munger, Founding Co-Director Advancement Project

Following a twenty-year career as a federal prosecutor and business litigator, Molly Munger has devoted a second twenty years to civil rights work. She has recently retired from daily work at civil rights group Advancement Project and now serves on the board of its California office’s successor, Catalyst California.

Both Molly and her husband, Steve English, began their legal careers at Agnew, Miller & Carlson, where they gained a life-long appreciation for their mentor, Bill Bogaard. 

Molly is a committed Pasadenan who appreciates all aspects of the Arroyo. Since she was nine, except for the years she was away in school, she has never lived more than a few blocks from an Arroyo edge. 

Molly has served on many boards, including 11 years with the James Irvine Foundation. She is a former Commissioner on the First 5 California Commission and a former trustee of Occidental College..

Molly and her husband Steve have two married sons and four grandchildren, with the latest two, now 4 and 3, following the family tradition by living on South San Rafael about a block from the San Rafael Bridge.
