A highly sought-after political operator and strategist, Howard Franklin has served in government, advised national leaders, and led winning campaigns – including the election of Andre Dickens as the 61st Mayor of Atlanta.

He is the CEO of Ohio River South, a southern-focused government relations firm, and founder of Firehouse Phones, a political outreach company.
He also publishes Friendly Amendment, a newsletter informing 30,000 readers about southern public policy. An alum of Morehouse College, Franklin was elected the first male president of the Georgia League of Women Voters in their 90-year history at 28, and has held leadership roles with national groups like New Leaders Council and National Small Business Association.
