Speaking at Center for American Progress
Max Baucus is a Democratic member of the United States Senate, representing Montana.
Baucus earned both a Bachelor of Arts degree and a law degree from Stanford University. He has one son, Zeno.[1]
Baucus' live-in girlfriend, Melodee Hanes, had her eye on the Montana U.S. attorney post for years before he nominated her. She withdrew her nomination in March.
Being named U.S. attorney "was the career path she was working on" since at least 2002, said Yellowstone County Attorney Dennis Paxinos.[2]
