Biographical Information

Lisa Collis, First Lady of Virginia from 2002-2006, was born in Pensacola, Florida. She grew up in a Navy family and lived in seven states before settling in Falls Church, Virginia. Ms. Collis attended George C. Marshall High School, earned her Bachelor's degree in Biology at the University of Virginia and received her Masters degree in Public Health at the University of Texas. Her professional career has included health outreach to migrant farmer workers with the East Coast Migrant Health project and policy work with the World Bank, where she focused on food and nutrition issues and on AIDS assistance for Africa.

As First Lady, Ms. Collis devoted her time to supporting initiatives related to the well-being of Virginia's children, the environment and the arts. She traveled throughout the state advocating for parenting support programs.

Continuing with the spirit of public service begun in her private life, Ms.Collis served on several charitable boards and organizations, and supported efforts to improve children's health and quality early learning. She also continued her work with the Collis-Warner Foundation, established jointly with her husband, Governor Mark R. Warner. They are the parents of three daughters.
