Ann D. Begeman was sworn in May 2, 2011 as a member of the U.S. Surface
Transportation Board, bringing two decades of experience in transportation
policy to the Board.

               Ms. Begeman has served as a senior aide on Capitol Hill for
               21 years, playing a key role in the crafting of major
               transportation legislation, including the ICC Termination
               Act, which created the STB.

               Immediately prior to joining the Board, Ms. Begeman served
               as Republican Staff Director for the Senate Committee on
               Commerce, Science, and Transportation. She has also served
               as Acting Chief of Staff and Legislative Director for
               Senator John McCain and as a legislative assistant to
               Senator Larry Pressler. Ms. Begeman has also worked in the
               private sector, serving as a benefits specialist for First
               American Bankshares, Inc. She earned a B.S. in business
               administration from the University of South Dakota.

               Ms. Begeman was first nominated by President Obama on
               December 20, 2010. She was also nominated on January 5, 2011
               and confirmed by the U.S. Senate on April 14, 2011, for a
               term that expires Dec. 31, 2015. Ms. Begeman was then named
               vice chairman by the Board, a role that rotates between
               members each year. She was sworn in by STB Commissioner
               Francis P. Mulvey.

               âI am honored to have been nominated and confirmed for this
               important post,â Ms. Begeman said. âI look forward to
               working with all stakeholders, my new colleagues and Board
               staff.â
