Louisville’s Muhammad Ali Center has a new CEO, and he is a familiar face.

On this episode of Inside Louisville, host Kelsey Starks talks with DeVone Holt, who was the champion behind the $120 million Goodwill Opportunity Campus and the first hospital in Louisville’s West End in 150 years. Holt also has worked as an assistant superintendent for Jefferson County Public Schools. He grew up in the same neighborhood as Muhammad Ali, and he is the first Kentuckian and first Louisvillian to be named CEO of the Ali Center, which he calls this his “dream job.”
