Major Daniel Isom may be the youngest police chief in St. Louis' history, but he has packed a lot into his 41 years. He has been on the force for 20 years, holds a doctorate in criminology from the University of Missouri-St. Louis, and two masters degrees-in criminal justice from UMSL and public administration from St. Louis University. Isom is also a graduate of the FBI National Academy and the Police Executive Forum Senior Management Institute. Isom replaces Joe Mokwa and is a life-long St. Louisan, having grown up in the Penrose neighborhood and attended St. Louis University High School.
