Andrea Campbell will be sworn in as Massachusetts' attorney general on today. She'll be the first Black woman to serve as the state's top law enforcement official.
Andrea Campbell, incoming Attorney General, waves to attendees of the Massachusetts Democratic Party's election night gathering inside the Copley Hotel on Nov. 8, 2022.
The 40-year-old is a former Boston city councilor and mother of two children. She was the first Black woman to serve as the council's president and unsuccessfully ran for Boston mayor in 2021. When Campbell was an infant, her now-deceased father was sentenced to prison for eight years. Her mother died in a car accident on her way to visit him in prison. Campbell and her siblings spent most of their childhood in foster care or living with relatives. Her twin brother died 10 years ago while in the custody of the state Department of Correction. Her older brother, Alvin Campbell Jr., is in custody facing rape charges.
