InfoDavid Hochfelder is the son of a working-class, pro-union family. As a state legislator for the 17th District, he will work tirelessly to remove the power of special interests from politics, to provide opportunity and economic security for working families, and to strengthen civil rights for all New Jersey residents.

Originally from a blue-collar Chicago neighborhood, Hochfelder was raised by his mother and grandparents; his mother taught in the Chicago public school system and his grandfather was a janitor in a downtown high-rise. He graduated from a Catholic vocational/technical high school in 1982 and attended Northwestern University thanks to a combination of scholarships, financial aid, and part-time work. He has worked in a variety of fields and he holds advanced degrees in electrical engineering and history. As an engineer, he worked on the shop floor in the locomotive and electrical power industries. As a historian, he is currently an editor at the Thomas Edison Papers project at Rutgers University. He has volunteered over the years for a variety of organizations to empower citizens, including GED and adult literacy programs, after-school programs for at-risk youth, and the Salvation Army. He has lived in New Brunswick for five years and is married to Ann Pfau, who coordinates an enrichment program for high-school history education.
