Biography
American politician and noted family, the daughter of California Governor Pat Brown and sister of California Governor Jerry Brown. She quips that politics is a "genetic defect." Likeable and attractive, Brown has campaigned for the family as long as she can remember. The youngest of four kids, she shows her dad's warmth and down-to-earth pragmatism. Her relationship with Jerry is loving, but prickly.
From Stanford University she went to Forham School of Law until her education was interrupted by an elopement at 19 with attorney George Arthur Rice. They had three kids, Hillary, Sascha and Zeb, before she finished her history degree. When Jerry ran for office in 1974, Brown joined the campaign and caught the political bug.
George left her devastated when he took off with another woman in 1978. She was already on her political trail as a Democratic member of the Los Angeles Board of Education, 1975-1980, and Commissioner,1975-1977. In 1984, Brown was moving toward the District Attorney's office. Her early career was marked by flip-flops on key issues, however, she was elected State Treasurer in 1987. Brown successfully managed the State's $24 billion investment portfolio. Running against Pete Wilson for California Governor, she lost the election to him in 11/1994.
Brown met Van Gordon Sauter, conservative TV executive and head of CBS Sports, in 1980. They married the same year, making her a stepmother to two sons. Sauter was President of CBS news from 1982-1987.
