Jane Swift (2001)

Biography

American politician, the 69th Lieutenant Governor of Massachusetts from 1999-2003, and, concurrently, as acting governor from April 2001 to January 2003. She is the only woman to perform the duties of governor of Massachusetts. At the time she became acting governor, Swift was 36 years old, making her the youngest female governor or acting governor in U.S. history.

She was elected as a running mate for Paul Cellucci. In spite of being pregnant with her first child, she pursued and won her campaign in the November 1998 election.

Three years later, Swift had twin daughters, the first acting Governor to give birth while in office. She was awake during the 40 minute surgery to deliver Lauren and Sarah on 15 May 2001, retaining her full gubernatorial powers. The birth touched off debates about gender in politics and the role of working mothers. Swift's husband, Chuck Hunt, was by her side during the delivery.

Since leaving elected office she has worked in the private sector as a Chief Executive Officer, board member and consultant for education technology companies, as well as serving on corporate and non-profit boards, teaching and lecturing on topics pertaining to women and leadership, and supporting philanthropies that address issues of importance to women and girls. She was CEO of Middlebury Interactive Languages from 2011 to 2017.
