Monty Wilkinson, most recently Director of the Executive Office for United States
Attorneys (EOUSA), retired on June 30, 2023, after serving most of his career with
the Department of Justice. Mr. Wilkinson, who had previously served as Director
of EOUSA from 2014-2017, and prior to that as its Principal Deputy Director and
Chief of Staff, was reappointed EOUSA Director by Attorney General Merrick
Garland on March 14, 2021. EOUSA provides executive and administrative support
for the 93 United States Attorneys.
After graduating from the Georgetown University Law Center in 1988, Mr.
Wilkinson served as a law clerk to Eric Holder, then a judge of the Superior Court
of the District of Columbia. He began his career with the Department of Justice in
1990 as a trial attorney in the Criminal Division. He went on to work as Special
Counsel and Spokesperson for the U.S. Attorney for the District of Columbia and
continued to serve in senior management positions in that office before becoming
an Associate Deputy Attorney General in 1997. During his career with the DOJ, he
served as Counselor and Deputy Chief of Staff to the Attorney General, as the
Deputy Assistant Attorney General for Human Resources and Administration, as
well as the Acting Attorney General from January 20, 2021 until March 11, 2021,
when Attorney General Garland was sworn in.
Former Director Wilkinson’s friends, including his many friends in NAFUSA, expect
him to spend time with family, travel and play a lot of golf!
