Ned Lamont is one of the most popular and richest Businessperson who was born on January 3, 1954 in Washington, D.C., United States. Lamont was born in Washington, D.C. on January 3, 1954 to Camille Helene (nee Buzby), and Edward Miner Lamont. His mother was born in San Juan (Puerto Rico) to Puerto Rican parents. She later worked for Senator Estes Kefauver as a staffer. His father, an economist and former Marshall Plan staffer, was later a member of the Department of Housing and Urban Development under the Nixon administration. He is the great-grandson and grand-nephew respectively of Corliss Lamont, former chair of J. P. Morgan & Co., and Thomas W. Lamont. He is a distant relative of Thomas Minor, a colonial diarist from whom he takes his middle name.

Lamont was elected as a Greenwich selectman in 1987. He served one term. In 1990, he ran for the state senate against Republican William Nickerson. He was also up against incumbent senator Emil “Bennie” Benvenuto, who had changed his party affiliation from Republican Party to A Connecticut Party. Nickerson won the three way race, with Lamont coming in third. Lamont served three terms on Greenwich’s finance board, and was also chair of the State Investment Advisory Council. This council oversees investments in state pension funds. The state’s unfunded liabilities were reduced, and the performance of its pension funds was improved during his tenure as chair.

Lamont focused on Lieberman’s supportive relationship with Republicans, telling him “if you won’t challenge President Bush and his failed agenda, I will.” He criticized Lieberman’s vote for the Energy Policy Act of 2005, which he dubbed the “Bush-Cheney-Lieberman energy bill.” In response to the assertion that he supported Republican policies, Lieberman stated he had voted with Senate Democrats 90% of the time. Lamont argued the three-term incumbent lacked the courage to challenge the Bush administration on the Iraq War. He also criticized Lieberman for supporting federal intervention in the Terri Schiavo case.

Before the 2006 election, Lamont had volunteered at Warren Harding High School in Bridgeport, where he focused on teaching entrepreneurship and coordinating internships with local businesses. After the election, he served as a teaching fellow at the Harvard Institute of Politics and the Yale School of Management. He then became an adjunct faculty member and chair of the Arts and Sciences Public Policy Committee at Central Connecticut State University (CCSU), where he was named Distinguished Professor of Political Science and Philosophy. During his time at CCSU, he was a lecturer in multiple classes and founded a business startup competition. In 2019, he delivered the commencement speech for CCSU, his first as governor.

Ann Huntress, a venture capitalist, was married to Lamont on September 10, 1983. Their three children are Emily, Lindsay and Teddy. He lives in Greenwich with his family and has a vacation home at North Haven, Maine.
