Bud Reber has served as director of East Central Region of University of Missouri Extension since March 15, 1999. He was permanently appointed to the position after serving as interim regional director for six months. His office is located at University of Missouri-St. Louis.

A resident of Troy, Missouri, Reber provides administrative leadership for outreach and extension activities in the region’s counties:  Franklin, Jefferson, Lincoln, Montgomery, St. Charles, St. Francois, Ste.
