Newsom's parents divorced in 1971 when he was three years old.
Newsom has said he did not have an easy childhood, partly due to dyslexia.
"I did not love reading, spelling, math and science. I struggled. I was a terrible speller."
Newsom's first political experience came when he volunteered for Willie Brown's successful campaign for mayor in 1995.
"I don't want to let the rest of this country drift into the abyss. I want to fight for it."
"You don't have to be something to do something."
