California First Partner and documentary filmmaker Jennifer Siebel Newsom’s time in state office with Gov. Gavin Newsom concludes in January 2027, when the latter’s final term ends after eight years. The former Newsom said she looks back with pride about not standing down on pay equity and other issues that plague women, despite the flack she’s collected along the way.
“I’m particularly proud of the work that we’ve done in terms of women’s wealth and closing the women’s wealth gap,” Siebel Newsom said Tuesday at the Fortune Most Powerful Women Summit in Santa Barbara, Calif., in conversation with Ellie Austin, the host of Fortune Daily and editorial director of Most Powerful Women.
