Malin Burnham

In March 2022 - at 94 - Malin Burnham gave up his post as vice chairman of Cushman & Wakefield, the commercial real estate firm that he joined in 2008 when he sold Burnham Real Estate to Cushman & Wakefield. Burnham is moving on to be chairman of the board of the Burnham Center for Community Advancement, which he describes as a “think-and-do” tank to take on regional issues such as housing, workforce development and refurbishing Balboa Park. He graduated from Stanford University in 1949. He was short on credits and had to finish his studies over the summer for a bachelor of science degree in industrial engineering.
