Frederick B. "Bart" Harvey III, a leader in promoting affordable housing, has been elected to the board of directors of Fannie Mae. Mr. Harvey, 59, retired as chairman of Enterprise Community Partners in March after 24 years with the foundation, of which he was chief executive officer from 1994 to 2007. Fannie Mae said Mr. Harvey worked with Congress to help create the Low Income Housing Tax Credit. "Bart is a perfect addition to Fannie Mae's board -- his life's work represents everything our mission is about: harnessing private enterprise to expand affordable, sustainable housing opportunities," said Daniel H. Mudd, Fannie's president and CEO. Fannie can be found online at http://www.fanniemae.com.
