About the Speaker: Mayor Lee Harris

On September 1, 2018, Mayor Lee Harris was sworn in as the 6th Mayor of Shelby County, Tennessee and was re-elected in 2022 with 58% of the vote.

Prior to his service as County Mayor, Mayor Harris served on the Memphis City Council and as Senate Minority Leader of the Tennessee General Assembly.   

In 2014, Mayor Harris was elected to the State Senate, becoming the youngest senator in the state of Tennessee at the time. When he was selected as Senate Minority Leader by his Democratic colleagues, he became the first African American to hold a top leadership position in the Tennessee General Assembly. Among his legislative accomplishments, he championed new laws to reform the criminal justice system, helped create a system to ensure immediate public notification if lead is found in drinking water, and worked to expand community college scholarships for students with learning disabilities.

Mayor Harris is a proud product of Memphis’ public schools. He attended Morehouse College on a full tuition scholarship. After graduating from Morehouse, Mayor Harris earned his law degree from Yale Law School. He began his legal career as an associate at Baker, Donelson, Bearman, Caldwell & Berkowitz, one of the largest law firms in the country.
