Terrence L. Bracy

Bracy Tucker has had many Fortune 500 clients, as well as major U.S. cities, airports, Native American tribes, European and Asian concerns and the U.S.

[3] In 1994, Terry Bracy was appointed by President Bill Clinton to the board of trustees of the Udall Foundation and subsequently elected the first chair.

There was a dinner to honor Bracy and his distinguished service to the Udall Foundation the same day in Tucson, Ariz. Bill Bradley, former three-term U.S.

"Terry's dedicated service has been critical to advancing the tremendous legacies of Mo and Stewart Udall," said Senator John McCain of Arizona.

"[5] "Terry served many years to make sure the Udall legacy would be enshrined in the national consciousness, not just today but in the future," said Congressman Raúl Grijalva of Arizona.

The Terrence L. Bracy Distinguished Alumnus Award recognizes outstanding contributions from Udall alumni in four principal areas of public service: conflict resolution, environmental work, health care (including social services), and tribal public policy.

Bracy has written numerous articles on public affairs issues for many periodicals, including The New York Times, St. Louis Post-Dispatch, and The Washington Post.

At a dinner the night before in Port Angeles, Washington, former Senator Bill Bradley delivered formal remarks and discussed Bracy's work on the Elwha.

The Elwha settlement was extremely fortunate that one of the major players in the negotiations, Daishowa America, chose to be represented in Washington by Terry Bracy.

He had the unenviable job of explaining Congress to a foreign-owned paper company, and convincing very skeptical business people that their interest lay in a deal that would separate their mill from the generators that fed it power.

I've heard him say that the Elwha settlement was a major inspiration for the creation of what is now the nations' most prestigious and successful environmental dispute resolution center.

Prof. Wesley G. Pippert, director-emeritus of Missouri Journalism's Washington Program, said: "Bracy's skill and abilities are as keen in a classroom as they have been in Congress, the Cabinet, and the business world.
