Governor Williams is a graduate of the University of Kentucky and lives in Anderson County, KY.

The Board of Governors includes nine governors who are appointed by the president with the advice and consent of the Senate. More information about the Board is available at: http://www.usps.com/communications/newsroom/bog.htmer 2014
