| Info | Harold McEwen Ickes was deputy White House chief of staff for President Bill Clinton. He is the son of Harold L. Ickes, who was Secretary of the Interior under Franklin D. Roosevelt.
Ickes is a graduate of Stanford University and Columbia Law School.
Ickes chaired Clinton's presidential campaign in New York in 1992. Before that, he was a senior advisor to David Dinkins' successful mayoral election in 1989. In 2000, he was a senior advisor to Hillary Clinton's Senate campaign. He now heads the Media Fund, a 527 committee. Following the 2004 elections, he was a contender against Howard Dean for the chairmanship of the Democratic National Committee (DNC).
As a member of the DNC's Rules committee he was a proponent of adding other states besides Iowa and New Hampshire early on in the Presidential nominating calendar. He was unsuccessful in his promotion of Alabama as the second primary state, after New Hampshire, which lost to South Carolina.
Since 2005 Ickes has been associated with a progressive data collection and voter file organization called "Data Warehouse" (now Catalist, with Laura Quinn, CEO). He currently serves as Catalist's President.
Ickes is a political strategist working on Hillary Clinton's campaign in the 2008 presidential election.
