Peggy Dulany

Margaret Dulany "Peggy" Rockefeller (born 1947) is a philanthropist and the fourth child of David Rockefeller and Margaret McGrath. She is a fourth-generation member ("the cousins") of the Rockefeller family. Her siblings are Abby, Richard, Neva, Eileen, and David Rockefeller Jr. The name Dulany is her middle name, taken from her mother's side of the family.

She graduated with honors in 1969 from Radcliffe College and earned a masters and doctorate from Harvard's Graduate School of Education. For most of that time she was a teacher as well as co-director of the STEP program for disadvantaged youth in Arlington, Massachusetts; she also spent time during her student years working with the poor in the favelas of Rio de Janeiro.

Dulany has worked with the National Endowment for the Arts on nonprofit management and planning. For five years she served as Senior Vice President of the New York City Partnership, founded by her father in 1979, where she headed the Youth Employment and Education programs.

Like her father, she has had a long involvement with the United Nations. She has been involved with consulting with the UN and the Ford Foundation on health care and family planning in Brazil, the US and Portugal. In June, 2003, Dulany joined the UN Secretary-General's Panel on Civil Society and UN Relationships as the only US representative. The UN maintains the aim of the panel is to "review past and current practices and recommend improvements for the future in order to make the interaction between civil society and the United Nations more meaningful".

She is also Chair of ProVentures, a business development company for Latin America and Southern Africa. She sits on the boards of Cambridge College, the Africa-America Institute, supports the family's Asia Society, and was previously on the board of the family's principal philanthropic organization, the Rockefeller Brothers Fund, as well as serving a five-year term on the board of trustees of the Rockefeller Foundation (1989-1994).
