Toby Chaudhuri directs communications at the Campaign for America’s Future’s Washington headquarters. He works with progressive organizations, political campaigns and people in public office to develop messages and strategies to communicate with the public and influence public policy.

A member of Generation X, Chaudhuri arrived at college a decade ago disillusioned, doubting politics could make a difference. He studied political science and economics and completed research later used by U.S. Senators to protect sick and hungry children from right-wing budget cuts. As a result, Chaudhuri became involved in local and statewide political campaigns, realizing in his work that he could make a difference.

Since then, Chaudhuri has managed more than $30 million total in state and federal campaigns and has worked at the helm of national media operations. He fought corruption to enact historical campaign finance reforms directing strategic communications at Common Cause; took on corporate polluters to provide safe drinking water and clean air as a political appointee to President Clinton; and worked to elect several principled state and federal candidates including serving as deputy press secretary to Al Gore's 2000 presidential campaign.

Before joining the Campaign for America’s Future, Chaudhuri worked hard to protect children as Marian Wright Edelman’s spokesman and media strategist at the Children’s Defense Fund. Chaudhuri also worked hard to promote multicultural civic engagement leading a campaign to turn out tens of thousands of Massachusetts Asian American voters in the 2002 midterm election. The program he developed was adapted to engage over 1.5-million South Asian American voters across the country for the 2004 elections.

Born and raised in Concord, Massachusetts, Chaudhuri now lives in Arlington, Virginia.
