| Summary: | State government official Penfield Tate was born on May 19, 1956 and grew up in Boulder, Colorado, where his father was the city's first African American mayor. He earned his B.A. degree in sociology at Colorado State University in 1978 and his J.D. degree from Antioch School of Law in Washington, D.C. in 1981. Tate worked as counsel to the Federal Trade Commission before returning to Colorado as a partner at the law firm of Trimble, Tate & Nulan. After two years working in the Denver mayor's office, Tate founded the law firm of Tate & Tate. He served as a leader of the Colorado Democratic Party, and in 1996 was elected Colorado State Senator and later Colorado State Representative, before returning to public finance law practice. Tate worked at the firm of Kutak Rock, was a regular panelist on the political talk show Colorado Inside Out, and served on several boards.
