W. Bush at the United States Agency for International Development.

Early life and education[edit]

Fore was born in Chicago, Illinois.[3] Her mother was from Switzerland. Her father served the military during World War I.[4] Her grandfather is turn of the century architect Henry K. Holsman, inventor of the Holsman Automobile (1902-1911).[5][6]

Fore grew up in Santa Barbara, California and attended Crane Country Day School[7] and Cold Springs School. She attended the Graham-Eckes School in Palm Beach, Florida, and graduated in 1966 from The Baldwin School, a private girls boarding school in Bryn Mawr, Pennsylvania.

In 1970, Fore received a B.A. in history, economics, and art from Wellesley College.[4] In 1975, she received a M.S. in public administration from the University of Northern Colorado.[8] In 1986, she studied international politics at the University of Oxford.

Career[edit]

After college, Fore worked in the federal government. She then worked at one of her father's companies, a small manufacturing business in the steel industry, a position she held for 12 years.[4] From 1977 to 1989, she was president and director of Stockton Wire Products in Burbank, California.[9] From 1981 to 1989, she was president and the chairman of the board of Pozacorp, Inc. in Burbank, California.[9]
