Joshua DuBois.

Joshua DuBois (born in 1982) is the former head of the Office of Faith Based and Neighborhood Partnerships in the Executive Office of the President of the United States under President Barack Obama.^[1]^[2]^[3] In February 2013 he stepped down and took a teaching position at New York University and columnist post at The Daily Beast.^[4]

DuBois has no formal training or academic degree as a minister or theologian. He graduated cum laude from BU in 2003 with a bachelor's degree in political science. From there, he went on to Princeton's Woodrow Wilson School of Public and International Affairs, where he earned a master's degree in public affairs in 2005. Meanwhile, he worked as an aide to Representative Rush D. Holt, Jr., and was a fellow in the office of Representative Charles B. Rangel. In March 2010, Rangel stepped aside as Ways and Means Chair. In November 2010, the Ethics Committee found Rangel guilty of 11 counts of violating House ethics rules, and on December 2, 2010, the full House approved a sanction of censure against Rangel.

After watching Barack Obama's speech to the 2004 Democratic National Convention on television, DuBois decided he wanted to work for Obama, then a candidate for the U.S. Senate. Eventually, Obama hired him as a Senate aide. In 2008, DuBois was religious affairs director for the Obama presidential campaign.

DuBois grew up in Nashville, the son of an African Methodist Episcopal pastor. His early religious foundations were found in the African Methodist Episcopal Church.

He is a member of Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity.
