Biography / Administrative History Barbara Jean Lee (née Tutt) was born on July 16, 1946 in El Paso, Texas the daughter of Mildred Adaire and Garvin Alexander Tutt, a lieutenant colonel in the United States Army. In El Paso, the family lived with her maternal grandparents, William Calhoun and Willie Parish, and she attended St. Joseph’s Catholic School taught by the Sisters of Loretto, a religious order that taught the virtues of peace and justice. The family moved from Texas to the Pacoima neighborhood of Los Angeles, California in 1960. While attending school at San Fernando High School, she sued the school district with help from the local chapter of the N.A.A.C.P. change the school’s procedures for selecting cheerleaders which would allow the entire student body to vote for cheerleaders rather than a small clique. In 1963, she was selected as the school’s first black

She graduated from San Fernando High School in 1964 and shortly thereafter followed her husband Carl Lee to England where he was stationed in Upper Heyford, Oxfordshire. In the late 1960s, she moved to Oakland, California and enrolled in college at Mills College. There she became politically active joining the Black Students’ Association eventually serving as the group’s president. As a student, she invited Shirley Chisholm to speak on campus during her historic 1972 campaign for president and she campaigned to have Chisolm on the ballot in Alameda County and served as a campaign delegate for Northern California at the Democratic National Convention. During this time, she also volunteered at the Black Panther Party’s Community Learning Center and worked as a volunteer for Bobby Seale’s 1973 campaign for the mayor of Oakland, California. She graduated from Mills College in 1973 with a Bachelor of Art degree in psychology and continued her education at the University of California Berkeley earning her Master of Arts degree in social work in 1975. As part of her graduate work, she founded the Community Health Alliance for Neighborhood Growth and Education (CHANGE, Inc.), a non-profit community health organization providing mental health service to low-income individuals in Berkeley, California. In 1974, she applied for the Cal in the Capitol Program upon the advice of Shirley Chisholm and was assigned to the office of Congressman Ronald Dellums representing California’s 7th District. Following her graduation from the University of California Berkeley, she was hired by Dellums to join his staff as an assistant. She served as Dellums’ advisor eventually serving as his chief of staff for eleven years until she left in 1987 to start a facilities management company. Lee was first elected to public office in 1990 when she ran for California State Assembly representing the 13th District. She won re-election to the seat twice in 1992 and 1994 before serving in the California State Senate in 1996-1998. During her time in the California State Assembly, Lee authored 67 bills and resolutions that were signed into law. Her legislation touched on a number of issues including education, healthcare, LGBT and women’s rights, and public safety. She also established the California Commission on the Status of African American Males (CCSAAM) and worked to defeat California’s “Three Strikes Law” that unfairly targeted and impacted African Americans. As advocate for women’s health, she authored the California Violence Against Women Act and served on the California Commission on the Status of Women. In 1998, Lee was elected to the United State Congress representing California’s 9th District (now District 13) following the retirement of her longtime mentor Ronald V. Dellums. During her tenure in Congress, she has served as chair and co-chair of the Congressional Black Caucus (111th Congress, 2009-2011) and the Congressional Progressive Caucus (109th and 110th Congress, 2005-2009). She has received national attention as the only member of Congress to vote against the Authorization for Use of Military Force Against Terrorists (AUMF) following the terrorist attacks on September 11th, 2001 and as an outspoken critic of the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. In Congress, she has advocated for legislation alleviating poverty, universal healthcare, HIV/AIDS, and she is the author of the Shirley A. Chisholm United States-Caribbean Educational Exchange Act. Since 2011, she has served on the House Appropriations Committee and Budget Committee and previously served on the Subcommittee on Financial Services and General Government; Subcommittee on Labor, Health and Human Services, Education, and Related Agencies; and Subcommittee on State, Foreign Operations, and Related Programs. She has been the recipient of numerous awards and honors including an honorary doctorate from Mills College, the Martin Luther King Jr. Freedom Award, and the Willie L. Brown Leadership Award.
