Nathan Eberline joined the League of Kansas Municipalities as its tenth Executive Director since 1910. He previously worked at the League from 2007 to 2011 as the Intergovernmental Relations Associate. After the League, Nathan continued serving local officials at the county level with the Kansas Association of Counties. After five years of working with colleges and universities with the Accreditation Council for Business Schools and Programs (ACBSP), Nathan returned to League in the spring of 2023.

“The League is unique in its ability to serve the communities of Kansas in so many diverse and important ways, and I am honored to be chosen by the Governing Body as its executive director,” said Eberline. “Years ago, when I first worked for the League, I hoped this opportunity would someday arise, and I am excited to once again work on behalf of the League and its members to promote excellence in local government.”

Nathan’s wife, Tara, also has a close connection with cities. She has been a regular speaker at League events and represents a number of cities across Kansas. They have three children, Lydia, Grace, and Andrew, and they have made Shawnee their home since 2007.

Nathan holds a bachelor’s degree in writing and political science from Wartburg College in Waverly, IA, and a Juris Doctor degree from the University of Iowa College of Law in Iowa City. He earned his Certified Public Manager designation in 2010 and has served in leadership roles with the Kansas Bar Association, the Kansas Enrichment Network, and his church in western Shawnee.
