Ted Cruz, born Rafael Edward Cruz on Dec. 22, 1970, in Calgary, Alberta, Canada, is a Republican U.S. senator representing Texas since 2013. His father, Rafael Bienvenido Cruz, fled Cuba in 1957 after imprisonment by the Fulgencio Batista regime and later earned a degree in mathematics from the University of Texas at Austin. Cruz’s mother, Eleanor Elizabeth Wilson, was born in Delaware. The family lived in Canada at the time of his birth, where his parents worked in the oil industry.
Cruz grew up in Texas and earned an undergraduate degree from Princeton University and a law degree from Harvard Law School. After law school, he clerked for Chief Justice William Rehnquist and worked in private practice. In 1999, he served as a domestic policy advisor on George W. Bush’s presidential campaign. As Texas solicitor general from 2003 to 2008, Cruz argued eight cases before the U.S. Supreme Court, defending freedoms including speech, the right to bear arms and religious liberty.
Elected to the Senate in 2012, Cruz is known as an outspoken, passionate conservative and firebrand. He sought the Republican presidential nomination in 2016 but was unsuccessful. Cruz lives with his wife, Heidi, and their two daughters, Caroline and Catherine.
