About Mark R. Warner
The son of a World War II Marine veteran, Mark Warner grew up in a working-class household. His family moved every few years but he was always able to attend good public schools. Mark was the first person in his family to graduate from college - putting himself through George Washington University through a combination of jobs and student loans. Early in his career, Mark Warner invested his life savings - a few thousand dollars - into starting a company. It failed after six weeks. So he tried again, and the next business failed after six months. But Mark didn't give up, and his third venture broke through: a cell phone company back when everyone was still using landlines. The values that defined Mark's early career continue to guide him every day in the Senate: a commitment to innovation, persistence in the face of a new challenge, and the notion that everyone - regardless of their background - should get the same fair shot that he did.
