Ken Hersh Ken Hersh's life has been a series of historical accidents. His story is of a Dallas native who, after graduating from Princeton and Stanford, ventured into the energy industry with no specific training and cofounded and ultimately served as CEO of NGP Energy Capital Management. At NGP, he helped pioneer an investment methodology that enabled NGP to become one of the nation's largest and most successful private investment franchises in the natural resources sector. Along the way, he found time to make a big impact on his broader community, both nationally and locally, through the efforts of the Hersh Foundation. Ken is known for giving both financial resources and his time to the numerous organizations in which he becomes involved. As a second act, again with no specific training, he raised his hand in 2016 to assume the leadership of the George W. Bush Presidential Center, where he oversees public engagement activities and a significant policy institute to support President and Mrs. Bush's priorities of freedom, opportunity, accountability, and compassion. His work to help advance the strategic plan and increase the organization's endowment fivefold has ensured that the Bush Center will thrive far into the future. Additionally, Ken manages his family investment office, which invests across the industrial, financial, sports, entertainment, technology, and real estate industries. He sits on numerous boards and spends considerable time mentoring operating executives. He is a prolific writer and a sought-after speaker on topics ranging from energy to geopolitics to economics and finance. When not at his ranch fly-fishing, he can usually be found at his desk working.
