Chris Hall

Christopher G. Hall is an English-American politician and academic. Hall was the president of the American University in Kosovo and a former state senator from Maine. Hall's background is as a steel and mining executive, but after growing weary of long commutes from Portland, Maine to New York, he sought a career change. In 2002, Hall was elected as a Democrat senator in midcoast Maine in a disputed election in which he narrowly defeated Republican Leslie Fossel. He failed to win reelection in 2004, and in 2007 accepted the appointment to lead the American University in Kosovo. In May 2014, Dr Hall was appointed President of International Horizons College in Dubai by its Board of Trustees.
