the Following is a list of the individuals that are more closely related to the main characters - the people within their "sphere of influence".


Brian

  • Matthieu Chalfant, Brian's law school chum and former biotechnology lobbyist. He recently accepted a position with the Hopewell Foundation as Director of Biotechnology Research. (Brian Jaffe 3x3 Friend)
  • Anderson Cooper, CNN correspondent. Friendly but totally professional relationship; as a very moderate Republican who wasn't in an elected office but was still very much on the inside (given Chafee's Committee seats), Brian was pretty much an ideal guest to speak on any topic in American politics - he could be sure to know what he was talking about and not have the stupid, pointless rancor against one side or the other that so many other guys did. (Brian Jaffe, 3x3 Contact)
  • David Jaffe: [59] Brian's Father, now estranged. A lawyer living in Hartford, Conn. (Brian Jaffe 3x3 Contact)
    • Miriam Vellinson: [age 57] Brians mother and first wife of David Jaffe. She is now staying with her mother in upper Conn. following her marriage break-up 2 years ago.
    • Emily Williams Jaffe: [age 52] David's wife of 2 years and an old friend of the family.
      • Candice Williams: [age 36] Emily's only daughter, she went to high school with Brian. Currently between jobs (as a graphic designer) and has stayed near home since high school. She drives a Toyota Celica that David bought for her. She is technically now Brian's step-sister.
      • Tommy (Thomas) Jaffe: [age 4] Tommy is the son of David and Emily, half brother to Candice and Brian and is the main reason for Brian's mother and father's divorce. He is now Brian's step-brother.
  • Joelle Millar, Brian's most recent ex and policy think-tank manager. Brian and Joelle had broken up three months before 9/11 but had stayed in touch - they had really liked each other, but were each just too married to their jobs to work at the relationship. Prior to 9/11 Joelle was a domestic politics manager for the Brookings Institution (an education, policy and social sciences think-tank) and had repeatedly tried to get Brian to leave his job with Chafee and come work for them. In part she disagreed with Republican politics and wanted Brian out of it, in part she thought that them being closer during the work day might help their relationship.
    • Following Brian's awakening he learned that Joelle has been promoted and is now the Director of Humanitarian Issues and Human Rights for the Brookings Institution. She has a special interest for Internally Displaced Persons and is currently involved in the Survivor case of 17 year old Zaida binte Shouk. (Brian Jaffe 3x3 Friend)
  • Daniel Turner, Brian's former Co-worker. Daniel was Senator Chafee's Communications Director when Brian worked for Senator Chafee. The two men were decent friends, looking out for each other and bonding against the idiocy of the others they had to work with. They were both a little too idealistic for their own good. (Brian Jaffe 3x3 Contact)

Jack

  • Senator Edward 'Ted' Kennedy: Senator Edward M. Kennedy has represented Massachusetts in the United States Senate since he was first elected in 1962 to finish the term of his brother, President John F. Kennedy. Since then, he has been re-elected seven times, and he is now the second most senior member of the Senate. Senator Edward 'Ted' Kennedy Supplimental
    His home is in Hyannis Port, Mass., where he lives with his wife Victoria Reggie Kennedy, a Washington lawyer and daughter of a Lousiana judge, and her children, Curran and Caroline. He has three grown children from his first marriage with Virginia Joan Bennett: Kara, Edward Jr., and Patrick, and four grandchildren. After his brothers John and Bobby were assassinated (in 1963 and 1968, respectively), he took on the role of surrogate father for his brothers' 13 children.
    • Joan Bennett: Jack's mother. Since her divorce, Joan has become an accomplished musician and grandmother to her four grandchildren, from Kara and Ted Jr. In addition, Kennedy has worked as an advocate for the mentally retarded and for cancer research and was a supporter of the Pine Street Inn, a Boston-based homeless shelter, and Children's Hospital. She has been arrested on several occasions for drunk driving. In 1974, she was arrested in Virginia. In 1988, she was arrested in Barnstable, Massachusetts. She was ordered to undergo treatment following a 1991 arrest in Quincy, Massachusetts. In 2000, she was arrested in Barnstable, and charged with DUI and failure to provide a license or registration. In the 2000 case, she was sentenced to 2 years probation.
      • Kara Kennedy Allen: [age 45] Jack's older sibling. She married Michael Allen on Sept. 9, 1990 in Centerville, Mass. They have two children: Grace Kennedy Allen, born Sept. 19, 1994 in Washington, D.C. and Max Greathouse Allen, born Dec. 20, 1996, in Rockville, Md.
      • Edward Moore Kennedy, Jr.: [age 44] Jack's older sibling. In 1973 cancer was discovered in his right leg. The leg was amputated. After graduation he worked at the New Haven, Connecticut law firm of Wiggin & Dana specializing in disability issues. Kennedy is the co-founder and President of the Marwood Group, a business development firm. He married Katherine Anne "Kiki" Gershman on November 9, 1993, on Block Island, Rhode Island. She is an assistant clinical professor of psychiatry at the Yale University School of Medicine. They have a daughter, Kiley Elizabeth Kennedy (born Aug. 7, 1994) and a son, Edward Moore Kennedy III (born February 25, 1998).
      • Representative Patrick ("Patches") Joseph Kennedy: [age 38] Jack's older sibling. Kennedy has been mentioned as a possible challenger for the United States Senate against liberal Republican Senator Lincoln Chafee in 2006. On his House web page, Kennedy denied that he will make a bid for the Senate in the mid-term elections. Patrick Kennedy has twice considered running against Lincoln Chafee for the U.S. Senate, in 2000 and 2006. One Senate seat in Rhode Island is held by fellow Democrat Jack Reed, so barring major faux pas on Reed's part, Kennedy will likely not challenge that seat while Reed holds it. Chafee's seat, being held by a Republican, is a different story. In the 2000 Senate recruiting phase, Kennedy gave serious thought to challenging Chafee, but Dick Gephardt moved Kennedy to the important House Appropriations Committee, a committee assignment so lucrative that Kennedy passed up the opportunity for 2000. Since Appropriations distributes money (and pork projects), Kennedy will have an increasingly influential role in where the money goes as his seniority increases. Given a perceived lack of strong Democratic challengers to Chafee in 2006, Kennedy again considered a Senate run in 2005, but declined due to his power on Appropriations and the condition of his ailing mother. All told, Kennedy has shown throughout his career a desire for increased political power. At this point, his young age of 38 and committee assignments make it likely that he will remain a House member, presumably assuming the very powerful role of House Appropriations chair when he becomes the most senior Democrat on the committee and the Democrats find a way to regain control of the House. While it's unlikely that a relatively liberal member of the Kennedy clan could make a serious run for the presidency (or be tapped as a nominee for vice president), in politics, stranger things have happened.
    • Victoria Reggie Kennedy: The Step mother.
  • Randel "Van" Styles, Georgetown College Graduate and former roomate of Jack Bennett. Currently employed at Akin Gump Strauss Hauer & Feld LLP Law Firm in Washington DC. (Jack Bennett 3x3 Friend)
