Raised in Orem, UT, Gary Herbert grew up painfully shy and grounded in sports. After a mission for his church and service to his country, he set up a real estate firm and lost his first political race by 36 votes. His eventual road to the governor's mansion is a testament to service and hard work. This is his story.

Governor Gary R. Herbert took office in 2009 and is currently the nation’s longest-serving governor. During his time in office, he has kept a resolute focus on economic development, improving Utah’s educational excellence, and working today to guarantee that Utah will continue to maintain its high quality of life far into the future. Under his leadership, Utah’s economy has risen to a position of national and international success. Governor Herbert was born and raised in Utah County, where he would eventually serve as a County Commissioner for 14 years. He attended Brigham Young University, served six years in the Utah National Guard (from 1970-1976), and started a successful real estate brokerage and development company, Herbert and Associates Incorporated.
