Laurene Powell Jobs’ philanthropy Emerson Collective announced Wednesday its fifth cohort of Emerson fellows. They include an oral historian in Montana, a civic designer in Los Angeles and a campaigner for political unity from Utah. The collective’s cohort of fellows this year are all local leaders who are pursuing projects of their own creation through a wide-range of methodologies. They will receive $125,000 from the collective and do not need to report back about how they spend those funds. Laurene Powell Jobs made her fortune along with her late husband, Apple co-founder Steve Jobs.
