Don Rosenthal
Don Rosenthal began his second term on the EPRD Board in 2023. He is on the Board because he wants to help EPRD fulfill its mission of providing high-quality recreational opportunities to residents and to do it in a fiscally responsible manner. During this second term, his focus is on ensuring that EPRD implements its newly developed strategic plan, with particular emphasis on funding needed maintenance of existing facilities and, if funding allows it, further developing Buchanan Park. Don is an avid hiker and pickleball player and he co-runs the Evergreen Newcomers and Neighbors Summer Hiking Group. Before retiring from the corporate world in 2015, he led financial risk modeling for two large companies: Freddie Mac in the Washington D.C. area and State Street Bank in Boston. Prior to working in finance, he worked with the Federal government in Colorado and Washington D.C. on a variety of issues related to natural resource and energy economics. Don and his wife have lived in Evergreen part-time since 2012 and full-time since 2015. They also lived in Colorado in the 70s and 80s, and their two children were born in Fort Collins. Don holds a Ph.D. in economics from Colorado State University.
