Biographical History
Christine Todd Whitman was born September 26, 1946, in New York, New York, and raised in Hunterdon County, New Jersey. She married John R. Whitman, a private equity investor. In 1968, she graduated from Wheaton College. During the Nixon administration, she worked in the Office of Economic Opportunity. She also conducted a national outreach tour for the Republican National Committee, was Deputy Director of the New York State Office in Washington, and worked on aging issues for the Nixon campaign and administration. In the 1980s she became involved in Somerset County, New Jersey, politics where she was appointed to the Board of Trustees of Somerset County College (now Raritan Valley Community College). She was elected to two terms as a member of the Somerset County Board of Chosen Freeholders, where she served as Deputy Director and Director of the Board. From 1988 to 1990 during the administration of Gov. Thomas Kean, she served as President of the New Jersey Board of Public Utilities. In 1990, she ran for the U.S. Senate against the incumbent Bill Bradley, and was narrowly defeated. In 1993 she was elected 50th Governor of New Jersey and served until 2001. She was the co-chair, with George W. Bush, of the 1996 Republican National Convention. On January 31, 2001, she became Administrator of the Environmental Protection Agency and served until June 27, 2003. In early 2005, she released a book entitled It's My Party, Too: Taking Back the Republican Party... And Bringing the Country Together Again.
