Brondi Borer
After graduating from Cardozo Law School in New York City, Brondi Borer opened a family law and mediation practice. The practice was focused on gay family law issues such as donor insemination agreements, child support and co-parenting agreements, domestic partnership and dissolution agreements, and second parent adoptions. She represented many gay and non-gay clients in litigated and mediated divorce actions. Since 1997, she has served as an adjunct professor at Marymount Manhattan College where she has taught Family Law and Public Speaking in the Critical Thinking Department.
For six years (2001-2007), Brondi decided to branch out into another area of law. She became the Vice President of The Entertainment Software Rating Board ("ESRB"), the self regulatory body for the videogame industry. Throughout her tenure at the ESRB, Brondi remained dedicated to LGBT civil rights issues. She is a trustee of The Point Foundation and serves as co-chair of the Founders Council of UCLA Law School's Williams Institute, a think tank dedicated to the field of sexual orientation law and public policy. She supports The Matthew Shephard Foundation, Lambda Legal, Freedom to Marry, the Progressive Patriots Fund, and Gay USA (TV show) by hosting, chairing, or co-chairing fundraising and educational events. Brondi serves on the Family Law Advisory Board for Cardozo Law School.
Brondi is married to Dr. Jeffrey Borer. They have two children, Justine and Jon. Justine is starting law school in the fall of 2007 and Jon is a financial analyst in New York City. She believes that it is critical for non-gay individuals to reach out to gay and non-gay members of the community to explain Freedom to Marry's work.
