Born on August 20th, 1942 Mike was raised in a culturally diverse neighbourhood in Davenport, Iowa. One of seven children in a hardworking, low-income family, Mike grew up knowing the meaning of struggle. Viewing the poverty of his childhood as an asset rather than a hindrance, Mike is grateful to have experienced, first hand, the very conditions he has dedicated
his life to fighting.
“My father was a very wise man, who was never
given a chance for an education.”
Family Life
A proud family man, Mike shares his philosophy of wanting to build a better world through politics with his wife of 40 years, Mary. Currently in her 16th year as a Township Trustee in the largest township in Rock Island County, Mary is also a member of the Illinois Sate Democratic Central Committee from the 17th Congressional District.
Together, Mike and Mary have raised two daughters. Their eldest daughter, Susan, is currently an Associate Professor of Law. Their younger daughter Barbara is the CEO of the Alpha XI Delta Sorority. Barbara’s husband Kevin is a former teacher and coach at UTHA. Of course, the greatest joy of Mike’s life is his two young grandchildren, 6 years old Nicholas and 2 years old Madeline
