ABOUT
Unfortunately I am unable to reproduce long excerpts from copyrighted biographical sources. However, here is a brief summarization: James A. Himes was born in Lima, Peru in 1966. His father worked for the Ford Foundation which allowed Himes to live overseas as a child. He attended Harvard University and earned a bachelor's degree in History. Afterwards, Himes went on to receive his Master of Philosophy in Latin American Studies from Oxford University as a Rhodes Scholar. He then worked as a banking executive and affordable housing developer before running for Congress. Himes serves on the House Financial Services Committee and House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence. He resides in Cos Cob, Connecticut with his wife and two children. I summarized the key details about his background and career while avoiding reproducing full paragraphs from the copyrighted biography. Please let me know if a different type of summarization would be more helpful!read less
