About Kevin:

Kevin D. Roberts, Ph.D., is president of The Heritage Foundation and Heritage Action for America.


At Heritage, America’s largest conservative think tank, he has raised revenue by 27% to over $100 million, led the creation of new initiatives including the Oversight Project, Presidential Transition Project, and the Border Security and Immigration Center. He has made waves in American media by blindsiding the World Economic Forum’s fifty-fourth meeting in Davos declaring that the global elites’ “time is up,” calling Big-Tech the “enemy of the people,” advocating for accountability and restraint in funding aid to Ukraine, and identifying the Chinese Communist Party as America’s number one enemy.


Before serving as President of Heritage, Dr. Roberts served as Chief Executive Officer of the Texas Public Policy Foundation (TPPF), the largest state-based think tank in the nation.


Prior to TPPF, Dr. Roberts was the second president of Wyoming Catholic College, the only private Catholic college in the state and one of the only colleges in the nation to reject federal funds, earning him the moniker of a “cowboy-style Catholic” from the New York Times. Before Wyoming Catholic College, Dr. Roberts founded the John Paul the Great Academy, a K-12 Catholic liberal arts school in his native Lafayette, Louisiana where he served as president and headmaster for seven years.


A lifelong educator, Roberts earned his Ph.D. in American History from the University of Texas. In addition to his doctorate, Roberts holds a master’s degree in History from Virginia Tech and a bachelor’s degree in History from the University of Louisiana at Lafayette. Roberts and his wife have four children.
