Dr. Mumphrey began his professional career in 1968 at the University of New Orleans (UNO)
where he served as the Research Coordinator for the Division of Business and Economic Research.
In 1973, he became an Associate Professor (and then Professor) of Urban and Regional
Planning at UNO where he taught transportation planning, quantitative methods of urban
analysis, public administration and cost-benefit analysis. He retired from the University in
1992 after teaching on a part-time basis since 1978. Recently, he has developed a specialization
in land use, local government fiscal impact and market assessment associated with the
resort, gaming, and recreation sectors.
In 1978, Dr. Mumphrey served as Director of Transition for New Orleans Mayor-elect Ernest N.
Morial. Mayor Morial later appointed Dr. Mumphrey as his Executive Assistant for Planning
and Development, a position he held for 6 years. During his tenure in city government, Dr.
Mumphrey played a lead role in the economic development and planning of contemporary
downtown New Orleans. He led city efforts in the financing and implementation of the Ernest
N. Morial Convention Center, development of the Rouse Riverwalk Festival Marketplace, negotiation
and implementation of the public-private partnership for the New Orleans Centre project,
establishment of the Regional Transit Authority, structuring of major capital programs by the
Downtown Development District and the City and development of the Almonaster-Michoud Industrial
District.
In 1984, Dr. Mumphrey started a professional consulting firm specializing in urban and regional
planning. It was during this time that Dr. Mumphrey first began his lengthy relationship as a
consultant to the Louis Armstrong New Orleans International Airport (LANOIA). Dr. Mumphrey
has assisted the Airport in capital project planning, packaging capital bond programs, developing
a Passenger Facility Charge program, securing Transportation Infrastructure Model for
Economic Development (TIMED) funding, orchestrating an FAA Letter of Intent and negotiating
LANOIA’s Airline Master Lease. Today, Dr. Mumphrey and his consulting firm, TMG Consulting,
are Master Consultants to the Airport. As Master Consultant, he advises LANOIA on a
wide range of issues and endeavors.
Dr. Mumphrey has provided similar services to a variety of airports, ranging from airports as
small as Houma-Terrebonne Airport in Louisiana to airports as large as Baltimore-Washington
International Airport. He authored an economic impact study for Lambert - St. Louis International
Airport as well as a successful Passenger Facility Charge application for Richmond International
Airport and a benefit-cost analysis for Mobile Regional Airport. In 1994, Mayor-elect
Marc Morial appointed him Co-Director of Transition and Dr. Mumphrey continued to serve as
a consultant and advisor to the Mayor throughout his entire 8-year stay in office.
Dr. Mumphrey has published several journal articles, monographs and reports (list available
