Biography
Breaux was born on July 6, 1947, in the town of Cheneyville, Louisiana, to Nelson Lee Breaux (1921-1999) and Evelyn Emma Lacaze (1925-2002). He grew up in Louisiana and, before entering politics, sold insurance and worked for an aluminum company in Lake Charles. He became motivated to enter politics after hearing his local preacher talk "about how Christian people really need to step up to the plate and get involved in politics."[1]
