Dixon becomes Maryland’s first Black state treasurer
Dixon, a 57 year old Carroll County native and former Merrill Lynch broker, is elected Maryland’s 22nd treasurer succeeding Lucille Maurer. A Vietnam veteran noted for three piece suits and jazz ears, he is the first Black to hold the post and views his conservative, workmanlike approach as key to winning broad support in a white county. He rises after mentoring from Charles Smelser and brings 26 years in finance to managing more than $20 billion in state assets, with a $200,000 salary and seats on the Board of Public Works and retirement system.
