Mike Pence biography
On June 7, 1959, Michael Richard Pence was born in Columbus, Indiana. Pence, the sixth child of Nancy and Edward Pence, an American Army veteran and owner of several gas stations, was influenced politically by his family’s Irish Catholic beliefs. He was a volunteer for the Bartholomew County Democratic Party as a student at Columbus North High School and grew up idolizing former president John F. Kennedy.
Church had been significant in Pence’s early family life, but while a student at Hanover College, he deepened his religious beliefs. Furthermore, he supported Jimmy Carter in 1980, but was afterward motivated by Ronald Reagan and the Republican Party. The year after receiving his B.A. in history, he relocated to Indianapolis to enroll in the Indiana University McKinney School of Law, where he received his J.D. in 1986. When Pence was a student at Hanover College, he became a “born-again Evangelical Catholic,” albeit the church had played a significant role in his early family life.
