Kerry D. Tucker

Kerry Tucker; Nuffer, Smith, Tucker Public Relations CEO; is a strategy guy. He created one of the country’s first issue anticipation systems followed by the first behavioral framework for the public relations field, both captured in a textbook adopted by hundreds of colleges and universities all over the world. He co-founded Food Foresight, a trends intelligence system for the agri-food chain and serves on a number of university boards and the State Board of Food and Agriculture. He spends most of his professional life helping companies decide what they want to be when they grow up. Family life revolves around wife Linda and three children some would consider grown — one an Orange County kindergarten teacher, another a budding public affairs consultant and the third, a student and baseball player at University of Redlands.
