Susan F. Tierney (born 1951) was expected to be named Deputy Secretary of Energy[1] in the United States Department of Energy under President Barack Obama, until she withdrew her candidacy for the position in March 2009.

She co-led the DOE Agency Transition Team as part of the Obama/Biden Presidential Transition Project, and then assisted Energy Secretary Steven Chu during his first six weeks in his position.

During this period, she was on leave from her position as a managing principal and energy and economics consultant with the Analysis Group[2] since 2003. From 1993 to 1995 she served as the Assistant Secretary of Energy for Policy in the Clinton administration. Previously, she was appointed to roles in state government in Massachusetts by both Republican governor William Weld and Democratic governor Michael Dukakis. Early in her career she was an assistant professor at the University of California, Irvine.

Tierney has a Ph.D. and an M.A. in regional planning and public policy from Cornell University and a B.A. in art history from Scripps College.

She is the sister of James Fallows, the noted journalist and author.

In September 2009, Dr. Tierney was elected to the Board of Directors of World Resources Institute.[3]
