Nadler has represented New York’s 12th district in Congress since succeeding Ted Weiss in 1992. Before serving in Congress, he was a member of the New York State Assembly from 1977 to 1992. Born in New York City in 1947 and currently residing in Manhattan, Nadler holds degrees from Columbia University (BA) and Fordham University (JD).
