The National Academies of Sciences, Medicine, and Engineering are pleased to announce the appointment of Ann Brach as executive director of the Transportation Research Board.
Ann (pictured left) brings more than two decades of experience at the National Academies, most recently serving as director of TRB’s Technical Activities Division, where she led a large, multidisciplinary program supported by thousands of volunteers and sponsors across the transportation sector. She has played a central role in modernizing TRB’s technical activities, strengthening alignment with its mission and emerging priorities, and advancing the impact of its programs. Earlier in her career, she led TRB’s Strategic Highway Research Program 2, a major national research initiative. Ann brings deep experience, strategic vision, and a strong commitment to TRB’s mission.
At the same time, Victoria Sheehan will be a sector director with HDR. Since 2022, she has led TRB through a period of significant change, including a major reorganization to strengthen and streamline its committee structure. Her leadership has advanced transportation research, deepened engagement with stakeholders, and fostered collaboration across the National Academies and within the transportation community. She has agreed to serve for a period of time as senior advisor, helping to ensure continuity and assist with the leadership transition.
