Dana Gold served until 2008 as the Director of the Center on Corporations, Law & Society at Seattle University School of Law. The Center was formed in 2003 to conduct and to promote interdisciplinary scholarship and dialogue on issues related to the roles and obligations of corporations in an increasingly privatized and interdependent global society.
Prior to her work with the Center, Gold served from 1995 to 2002 as attorney and Director of Operations of the Government Accountability Project (GAP). GAP is a national nonprofit organization that was founded in 1977 to promote government and corporate accountability through advancing occupational free speech and ethical conduct, as well as by providing legal and advocacy assistance to whistleblowers.
Gold’s former legal practice focused primarily on litigation within GAP's Environmental and Nuclear Oversight Programs. She has represented whistleblowers who suffered retaliation for disclosing fraud and serious threats to public health, safety, and the environment on the Trans-Alaskan pipeline, at several Superfund sites, and at contractor-operated nuclear facilities such as Hanford in eastern Washington, Rocky Flats near Denver, Colorado, Lawrence Livermore in northern California, and Los Alamos in northern New Mexico.
In addition to her role as Director of the Center on Corporations, Law & Society, Gold also taught as an adjunct professor at Seattle University School of Law in the areas of whistleblower law and corporate governance. Gold left the Seattle area in 2008 and has taken on responsibilities in the private sector.
