Doug Emhoff: 10 Things To Know About Kamala Harris' Husband by WriterNig: 7:55am On Jan 27, 2021 |
When Kamala Harris became the first Black female vice president in American history, her husband, Doug Emhoff, also became the country's first-ever second gentleman. 1. Doug Emhoff was born in Brooklyn, New York, and grew up in New Jersey before moving to California with his family at age 17. Emhoff lived in Old Bridge and Matawan, New Jersey, from 1969 until 1981. He tweeted that New Jersey "is still very much in my veins" in response to a Harris campaign worker returning home to the state for Thanksgiving. 2. He's been an entertainment lawyer for over 25 years. Emhoff was a partner at DLA Piper in Los Angeles specializing in intellectual property and entertainment and media law. He earned his law degree at the University of Southern California. 3. He's litigated cases related to the intellectual property of the Taco Bell Chihuahua and the viral sensation "Pizza Rat." A Michigan company named Wrench sued Taco Bell for breach of contract, claiming that Taco Bell had taken the chihuahua character they invented to another ad agency, TBWA, for adaptation into a television series. A federal judge ruled that Taco Bell — not TBWA, thanks to Emhoff — had to pay $42 million. 4. He met Kamala Harris on a blind date in 2013. The two were set up on a blind date by Harris' friend Chrisette Hudlin, who met Emhoff through work. 5. The couple wed in a ceremony officiated by Harris' sister Maya in August 2014. Harris and Emhoff held their wedding at a courthouse in Santa Barbara, California. 6. He has two children, Cole and Ella, from a previous marriage to Kerstin Emhoff. Doug and Kerstin divorced after 16 years and remain good friends. Kerstin is also friends with Harris — she even volunteered for Harris' campaign. 7. He's the first Jewish spouse of a vice president. He and Harris released a video for Hanukkah in which they discussed the meaning of the holiday and lit a menorah. Emhoff also shared a Rosh Hashanah message for the Jewish new year in September. 8. With Harris inauguration as vice president, Emhoff will leave his practice and become a law professor at Georgetown. Emhoff will teach a class called "Entertainment Law Disputes." 9. He's an avid golfer. Emhoff was a member at Hillcrest Country Club, a historically Jewish country club in Los Angeles that formed when other establishments would not admit Jews. For a time, his Twitter bio included the descriptor "wannabe golfer." 10. He has a fantasy football team named Nirvana. On what would have been Nirvana frontman Kurt Cobain's 50th birthday in 2017, Emhoff tweeted a tribute to the star. https://www.insider.com/doug-emhoff-facts-second-gentleman-2020-12 3 Likes 1 Share |
