Timeline
Anna Kaplan (née Monahemi) (born August 23, 1965) is an Iranian-American politician from Great Neck, New York.
A Democrat, she was a member of the New York State Senate, representing New York's 7th State Senate district, which runs from the North Shore to roughly the central part of Western Nassau County on Long Island.
She was a member of the so-called "Long Island Six," a group of six Democrats who represent Long Island in the New York State Senate and often vote as a block.
Kaplan started her political career as a member of the North Hempstead Town Board in 2011, and served until her election to the state senate.
She had previously served as a trustee of the Great Neck Public Library and was also a member of the North Hempstead Board of Zoning Appeals.
On January 11, 2016, Kaplan announced that she would run for the seat in the United States House of Representatives for NY's 3rd congressional district being vacated by retiring congressman Steve Israel.
Kaplan was defeated in the 2016 New York Congressional Democratic Primary by former Nassau County Executive Tom Suozzi.
Suozzi won the general election.
She was elected in 2018 as part of a wave of Democrats who defeated Republican incumbents and brought control of the New York Senate to the Democrats for only the third time since World War II.
Kaplan is the first Iranian-American to be elected to either of New York state's legislative chambers and she is the first former political refugee to serve in the New York Senate.
Kaplan was born to an Iranian Jewish family in Tabriz, Iran, and raised in Tehran, where her father was a carpet dealer.
When the Islamic Revolution swept the country, Anna's parents sent her to the United States for safety at age 13.
Arriving as an unaccompanied child refugee in Crown Heights, Brooklyn, Anna was sent to live with a foster family in Chicago, Illinois, until her parents were able to legally enter the United States.
After her family reunited in Chicago, they moved to Queens, New York, and then to Great Neck, New York.
Kaplan attended the Stern College at Yeshiva University, and received her J.D. from Cardozo School of Law in New York City.
On April 27, 2018, flanked by Nassau County Democratic Party Chairman Jay Jacobs and New York Governor Andrew Cuomo, Kaplan announced her candidacy for the New York State Senate's 7th District to a large gathering of supporters and state and local Democratic elected officials at the "Yes We Can Community Center" in Westbury, New York.
On August 1, 2018, Kaplan became the first candidate for New York State office to be endorsed by former President Barack Obama.
On November 6, 2018, Kaplan defeated incumbent Senator Elaine Phillips and won election to the New York State Senate with 55 percent of the vote.
Kaplan was Chairperson of the Senate Committee on Commerce, Economic Development and Small Business, and was a member of the Senate Committees on Children and Families, Internet and Technology, Judiciary, Mental Health and Developmental Disabilities, Transportation and Women's Issues.
She was also a member of the Legislative Women's Caucus.
In January 2019, Kaplan was one of four new state senators spotlighted by the New York Times in a piece on first-time New York senators.
In May 2023, Kaplan announced she would run for Congress in New York's 3rd congressional district, seeking to succeed George Santos in either the 2024 election or a special election if Santos were to resign or be expelled from the House.
Kaplan and her husband, Darren, live in North Hills, New York, and have two college-age daughters.
