Robert Tucker Biography

Robert S. Tucker is a businessman and philanthropist who served as the 35th Commissioner of the New York City Fire Department (NYFD). He managed the agency’s more than 17,000 employees and $2 billion annual budget.

Prior to the FDNY, Tucker directed the strategic growth and diversification of T&M USA, a security and investigative services company based in New York City, where he served as chairman and CEO. Before that, he spent nearly a decade in law enforcement management, serving as a special assistant in the Office of the Queens County District Attorney, where he developed an extensive network of contacts in the law enforcement community while overseeing administrative functions at a major urban prosecutor's office. This experience enabled him to work closely with executive-level members of the New York City Police Department and the city administration, as well as with the Federal Bureau of Investigation, the U.S. Secret Service, and the different local U.S. Attorney's Offices, where he still maintains valuable relationships.

Among his many professional, civic, and philanthropic affiliations, Tucker has served on the boards of directors of the FDNY Foundation, the New York City Police Foundation, White Plains Hospital, and Pace University. He is vice president of the board of directors of the Richard Tucker Music Foundation, named for his grandfather, opera singer Richard Tucker.

Tucker has been honored by the New York Board of Rabbis and the Big Brothers Big Sisters of New York City. He is a graduate of The George Washington University and Pace University School of Law.
