She chairs the International Peace Academy and the Advisory Board of the Rand Center for Middle East Public Policy and serves as a director for organizations including the Rand Corporation, the International Institute For Strategic Studies in London and the Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts.
An accomplished international lawyer interested in conflict resolution, security and human rights, Hauser was a senior partner for more than 20 years at Stroock & Stroock & Lavan in New York City.
