Instantly recognizable by his gray ponytail, Jack Kirfman is a ubiquitous presence around City Hall. As political action coordinator for the local chapter of the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees, Kirfman has worked tirelessly for years on behalf of civilian city employees, fighting cuts and preserving services. Plus, he also finds time to consult on a number of causes, like he did on Austin's big-box ordinance. So next time someone tries to badmouth the city, tell 'em: You don't know Jack.
