Nancy P. Dorn

Nancy Patricia Dorn She attended Baylor University, graduating with a B.A. degree in 1981. During her time as Assistant Secretary, the United States Army Corps of Engineers took a wider role in environmental cleanup projects, including cleanup of nuclear production sites operated by the Department of Defense and the United States Department of Energy, and the United States Environmental Protection Agency's Superfund sites.

From 1999 to 2001, Dorn was national security adviser to House Speaker Dennis Hastert (R-Ill. 14). A minor controversy erupted in 2000, when it was reported that during her time at Hooper, Owen & Winburn, Dorn, and fellow lobbyist Charlie Wilson, had lobbied on behalf of Hutchison Whampoa at a time when Rep. Dana Rohrabacher (R-Cal. 46) had introduced a house resolution condemning Hutchison Whampoa for its ties to the Chinese Communist Party and the People's Liberation Army, and its alleged bribery of Panamanian officials to enable it to win port deals in the Panama Canal. Speaker Hastert had not been informed that Dorn had lobbied on behalf of Hutchison Whampoa, Azerbaijan, and Pakistan, which was embarrassing to Hastert when revealed.

In 2001, Dorn joined the office of Vice President of the United States Dick Cheney as a legislative affairs assistant. She became deputy director of the Office of Management and Budget the next year.

Dorn left government service in May 2003 to become Vice President of Corporate Government Relations of General Electric.
