Charles D. Baker, Jr. : ウィキペディア英語版
Charlie Baker

Charles Duane "Charlie" Baker, Jr. (born November 13, 1956) is an American businessman and the 72nd and current Governor of Massachusetts, having been sworn into office on January 8, 2015. He was a cabinet official under two Massachusetts governors, spent ten years as CEO of Harvard Pilgrim Health Care and was also the Republican nominee for Governor of Massachusetts in an unsuccessful 2010 bid.
Raised in Needham, Massachusetts, Baker is the son of a Republican executive official who worked under Ronald Reagan and Richard Nixon. He graduated from Harvard College and obtained an MBA from Northwestern University's Kellogg School of Management. In 1991, he became Massachusetts Undersecretary of Health and Human Services under Governor William Weld. In 1992, he was appointed Secretary of Health and Human Services of Massachusetts. He later served as Secretary of Administration and Finance under Weld and his successor Paul Cellucci.
After working in government for eight years, Baker left to become CEO of Harvard Vanguard Medical Associates and later Harvard Pilgrim Health Care, a non-profit health benefits company. During this time he served three years as a selectman of Swampscott, Massachusetts, and considered a run for governor in 2006. He stepped down in July 2009 to run for Governor of Massachusetts on a platform of fiscal conservatism and social liberalism. He was unopposed in the Republican primary but lost in the general election to Democratic incumbent Deval Patrick. Running for governor again, on November 4, 2014, he won the general election against Democrat Martha Coakley.
==Early life and career==
Charles Duane Baker, Jr. was born November 13, 1956, in Elmira, New York. Baker is of English ancestry, and his family has been in what is now the northeastern United States since the colonial era.〔https://books.google.com/books?id=JvKW3fTOd8oC&pg=PA63 〕 He is the fourth generation in the family to bear his name:〔〔"(Harvard Pilgrim Health Care Inc., Quarterly Statement as of March 31, 2007 )." Maine.gov.〕 His great-grandfather, Charles D. Baker (1846–1934), was an Assistant United States Attorney in New York, who served several years in the New York State Assembly.〔Near, Irvin W. (1911). ''(A History of Steuben County, New York, and Its People )''. pp. 578–580. The Lewis Publishing Company (Chicago).〕 His grandfather, Charles D. Baker, Jr. (c. 1890–1971), was a prominent politician in Newburyport, Massachusetts.〔"(Charles B. Baker, Jr. )" October 9, 1971. ''The New York Times''. p. 34〕〔"Estates Appraised." ''The New York Times'': p. 38. October 31, 1934.〕 His father, Charles Duane Baker (born 1928), a Harvard graduate, was a buyer for the Westinghouse Electric Corporation, while his mother, Alice Elizabeth "Betty" (née Ghormley), remained at home.〔English, Bella (October 3, 2010). "(Baker: Happy days, high expectations )." ''The Boston Globe''. Retrieved October 3, 2010.〕〔"(Ronald Reagan: Nomination of Charles D. Baker To Be Under Secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services )." ''The American Presidency Project''. July 27, 1984. Retrieved October 3, 2010.〕〔()〕 Baker grew up with two younger brothers Jonathan and Alex in Needham, Massachusetts, with a second home in Rockport. He grew up playing football, hockey, and baseball; he has described his childhood as "pretty all-American".〔
Baker's father was a conservative Republican, his mother a liberal Democrat, and the family was often drawn into political arguments at the dinner table.〔 His father became vice president of Harbridge House, a Boston management consulting firm, in 1965. In 1969, the family moved to Washington, D.C., where the elder Baker was named Deputy Under Secretary of the Department of Transportation under President Richard Nixon, and the next year became the department's Assistant Secretary for Policy and International Affairs.〔〔
The family returned to Needham in 1971, where Baker attended Needham High School.〔〔Moskowitz, Eric (July 8, 2009). "(For GOP's Baker, a long resume at a relatively young age )." ''The Boston Globe'' (online). Retrieved July 30, 2009.〕 In high school he served on the student council, played basketball, and joined DeMolay International, a youth fraternity organization. In a Bay State Conference championship basketball game, a ball he inbounded with 2 seconds left on the clock was tipped away by a player from Dedham High School, causing Needham to lose by a single point.
He reluctantly attended Harvard College "because of the brand", graduating in 1979 with a BA in English. He later reflected negatively on the experience, writing, "With a few exceptions ... those four years are ones I would rather forget."〔〔 He then attended Northwestern University's Kellogg School of Management, where he received an MBA in Management. After graduating, Baker served as corporate communications director for the Massachusetts High Technology Council.〔Phillips, Frank (October 8, 1992). "Weld said to tap health aide for Cabinet post." ''The Boston Globe'' 242 (100): p. 38.〕 (His father served as Undersecretary of the United States Department of Health and Human Services under President Ronald Reagan.)〔Aucoin, Don (November 22, 1992). "Like father, like son." ''The Boston Globe'' 242 (145): p. 77.〕
