He worked in several positions at the Atlanta Fed since joining it in1964, and served as first vice president and chief operating officer from 1984 until he was named president and CEO of the bank in 1996.

Guynn attended his first AYSPS Advisory Board meeting in October. “The breadth of the work you’re doing at this school is just amazing to a newcomer,” he says.

During his career, Guynn has served on the boards of a variety of industry, professional, academic and philanthropic organizations, and he remains extremely active in the community. AYSPS is grateful that he has agreed to bring his knowledge and leadership in such a broad range of areas, on the economy and in the community, to bear on the success of the school.
