Mr. Canner joined USCIB in 1994 following a 28-year career in the international affairs division of the Treasury Department, where he served as staff director for the inter-agency Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (CFIUS) and led staff efforts on the implementation of a U.S. "open door" policy toward foreign investment. He was awarded the President's Distinguished Service Award in 1990. Mr. Canner holds a Ph.D. in economics from Clark University.
