Adrian Malik Fenty (born December 6, 1970) is an American politician who served as the sixth mayor of the District of Columbia. He served one term, from 2007 to 2011, losing his bid for reelection at the primary level to Democrat Vincent C. Gray. Though Fenty won the Republican mayoral primary as a write-in candidate, he declined the Republican nomination and said he would likely not seek elected office again. Gray went on to win the general election for Mayor in the largely Democratic District.
Education reform was a major focus of Fenty’s mayoral tenure. On the first day of his term, he introduced legislation to vest control of the public schools in himself, rather than the elected school board. Previous attempts to reform the schools, including one in 1996 where a D.C. financial control board took charge of the schools, had failed. At the beginning of Fenty’s term, student test performance scores and graduation rates were among the lowest in the nation and District residents had been demanding that the schools be “fixed”. In April 2007, the D.C. Council approved Fenty’s plan; the necessary legislation was approved by the U.S. Congress and signed into law by President George W. Bush in May 2007.
His parents are Jeanette Bianchi Perno Fenty and Phil Fenty.

The race was widely viewed as neck-and-neck between Fenty and Cropp through the spring of 2006. Fenty ran on a platform of bringing a more energetic and hands-on approach to city government,, advancing bold ideas for change, and sticking to them. Fenty said he would take his uncompromising style to the mayor’s office, and cited with approval, Margaret Thatcher’s saying that, “Consensus is the absence of leadership”. Cropp stressed her 25 years of experience in city government and her desire to continue the progress made by Anthony Williams, who endorsed her candidacy. She also stressed her ability to cooperate with diverse groups and reach consensus. She criticized Fenty’s proposed approach to governing; being mayor, saying the mayor’s job is “not just standing up and saying, ‘This is what I want done,’ and miraculously it’s going to happen.” Both candidates raised significant and nearly equal amounts of money – roughly $1.75 million through June 10, 2006 – and neither gained any significant advantages from the numerous candidate debates and forums.
