Neal Simon

(Posted on Monday, November 18, 2019)

Neal Simon ran as an independent candidate for a U.S. Senate seat in Maryland in 2018, polling as high as 18 percent in the three-way race. Unaffiliated with any political party, he ran to unite the country and to bring pragmatism back to Washington. Simon is still an engaged advocate for political reform today and serves on the boards of BPC Action (Bipartisan Policy Center), Stand Up Republic, and Unite America.

Before seeking office, Simon was CEO of Bronfman Rothschild and previously of Highline Wealth Management. An active community leader, he has served as board chair for both the Greater Washington Community Foundation and the Montgomery County Community Foundation. In 2016, Simon and his family were recognized by Interfaith Works as Humanitarians of the Year.

He holds a bachelor’s degree from Brown University and a master’s degree from the University of Chicago Booth School of Business. Neal and his wife, Jennifer, love the outdoors and a variety of sports—especially those their three children are playing.
