Meet Joanna Breyer, Stephen Breyer Wife
Joanna Breyer first met Stephen Breyer at a Georgetown dinner party in 1966. At the time, Stephen was just a regular a 28-year-old Justice Department aide, while the rich Viscount’s daughter worked as an assistant to the London Sunday Times’ Washington correspondent.
But she didn’t care about standings. According to her friends, she found the charming man hilarious and interesting, and Stephen found her lovely and challenging. Also, the two both shared an interest in cycling and camping.
Dating for almost over a year, the duo then walked the aisle on September 4, 1967.
Fast forward to over 5 decades, the lovebirds were still happily married (as of 2022).
In case you’re here as a fan of Joanna and don’t know who her husband is — Stephen Breyer is the son of Irving (an attorney for the city’s public schools) and Anne (an active Democrat and a volunteer for the League of Women Voters) who grew up in San Francisco alongside his younger brother Charles.
By 12, he had already attained the rank of Eagle Scout and often made it to interschool debate competitions. He then went on to graduate from Harvard and finally landed a job as a clerk for Supreme Court Justice Arthur Goldberg.
So, gradually the enthusiastic boy worked his way up and in 1987 he became a member of the U.S. Sentencing Commission. Seven years later, he was then nominated by Clinton to replace retiring Supreme Court Justice Harry Blackmun.
Finally, after serving the court for 25 years, Stephen will give in to the Liberal activists’ plea for him to retire. In 2022, Democrats were holding both the White House and Senate, so it was up to President Joe Biden to find his replacement.
