Stuart Lowrey

Stuart Lowrey joined the Secure Community Network (SCN) in April 2023 as the Regional Security Advisor for the Jewish Federation of Louisville. In this role, Stuart administers a security program that provides consultations, building and organizational assessments, training and drills, and threat mitigation to Jewish organizations, including schools, daycare centers, synagogues, camps, assisted living facilities, and other Jewish facilities.

His role grew out of SAFE Louisville, an initiative launched four years ago to “address the troubling trends associated with a rise in antisemitism.” 

Lowrey spent 32 years with the Department of Justice’s Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, retiring from the ATF in 2020. Over the last year, he’s been Regional Security Manager, Corporate Security and Investigations, for U.S. Bank in Chicago, responsible for more than 175 retail and corporate locations. 

His current role marks a return to a city where he spent a sizable chunk of his career. From August 2012 to October 2015 – and again from October 2016 to September 2019, Lowrey was Special Agent in Charge of the ATF’s Louisville Division, with jurisdiction over 15 offices principally in Kentucky and West Virginia, and the Indiana counties just across the Ohio River from Louisville.
