Milgram was counsel to Senator Jon Corzine during his final year in the United States Senate.[8]

Attorney General of New Jersey Milgram became Acting Attorney General on September 1, 2006, following the resignation of former Attorney General Zulima Farber.[9] From 2007 to 2010, Milgram served as New Jersey’s Attorney General,[10] where she led the 9,000-person Department of Law & Public Safety. She was New Jersey’s Chief Law Enforcement Officer. In that capacity, she directed the State Division of Criminal Justice and had oversight responsibility for the prosecutors and nearly 30,000 local law enforcement officers statewide. Milgram led investigations into street gangs, violent crime, public corruption, securities fraud and organized crime. She implemented a statewide initiative to improve public safety and reduce violent crime through crime prevention, law enforcement, and re-entry. She also oversaw and reformed the Camden Police Department. In doing so she reduced murders in Camden, NJ by 41% and all crime by 26%. Anne Milgram is a Democrat.

Intergovernmental Cooperation In 2007, Milgram announced a partnership with the U.S. Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (BATF) to allow New Jersey to trace the sources of illegal firearms through real-time electronic access to BATF’s E-Trace system, a nationwide data base that lists a firearm’s first purchaser, date of purchase, and the retailer from which the gun was purchased. As Attorney General, Milgram directed all police departments in New Jersey to forward all gun tracing information to E-trace to build a New Jersey database.[11]

Milgram has championed the use of smart data, analytics, and technology as a way to reinvent the criminal justice system. At the Arnold Foundation, she led the creation, development and national implementation of a new pretrial risk assessment tool to provide judges with more information for when they decide whether to release or jail people who have been arrested.[12]

In addition to developing the Public Safety Risk Assessment tool, Milgram spearheaded more than $55 million in philanthropic grants and operational projects. This included significant efforts to: shift the national focus from the back end of the criminal justice system (probation, parole, and reentry) to the front end of the system (pretrial); expand the research base for criminal justice; create state and local criminal data warehouses; work cross-sector to combine crime, health, education, housing and social service data to identify and test new areas of intervention and diversion; and develop a broader strategy for national criminal justice reform.[13]

Efforts to Transform the United States Criminal Justice System Milgram is presently a Professor of Practice and Distinguished Scholar in Residence at New York University School of Law, where she is building a Criminal Justice Innovation Lab, dedicated to using data and technology to transform the American criminal justice system. She teaches seminars on criminal justice policy and human trafficking.
