Early in his career, Oliver worked for public agencies, including the California Governor’s Office of Planning and Research where he was a principal contributor to An Urban Strategy for California. Later, Oliver taught real estate development at Cornell University and directed the undergraduate program in urban and regional studies. He is a member of the American Planning Association, the Urban Land Institute, the League of Women Voters and a founder of the California Planning Roundtable.
Oliver is a graduate of the urban studies and planning program at San Francisco State University and earned a master’s degree in urban planning at UCLA
