## Bio

Born in San Francisco in 1938, Edmund Gerald Brown Jr. grew up as the son of Pat Brown, California's 32nd governor. After Berkeley and Yale Law School, he entered politics through the Los Angeles Community College District Board of Trustees in 1969, then won election as California's secretary of state in 1970. At 36, he became governor in 1974 — the youngest in 111 years — and won a second term in 1978 while mounting unsuccessful presidential bids in 1976 and 1980. He skipped a third term to run for U.S. Senate in 1982, losing to Pete Wilson, then spent years abroad, chaired the California Democratic Party, lost the 1992 presidential primary to Bill Clinton, and hosted talk radio in Oakland. He returned as Oakland's mayor from 1999 to 2007, then California's attorney general until 2011, before winning the governorship again in 2010 and 2014. By the time he left office in 2019, he had served 16 years as governor — the fourth-longest in U.S. history and the longest in California's, surpassing Earl Warren in 2013.
