An attorney with 25 years experience in land use planning issues, Liberty served as a staff attorney and Executive Director for 1000 Friends of Oregon, the nation's oldest statewide Smart Growth advocacy organization. During that time, he also served as President and an officer for the Growth Management Leadership Alliance, an association of US and Canadian Smart Growth advocacy groups.
Liberty has degrees from the University of Oregon, Oxford University and Harvard Law School and was a Loeb Fellow at the Harvard Design School during the 2002-03 year.*
