ABOUT DANIEL
Daniel and his wife, Becca, are proud to raise their two children in San Francisco. A lifelong Democrat and San Franciscan, Daniel has dedicated his life to serving his community.
Daniel’s parents inspired his life of service. His father, Brian Lurie, is a Rabbi who organized his community to serve those in need and helped tens of thousands of Jews flee persecution in places like Ethiopia and Russia. Daniel’s mother, Mimi Haas, is a tireless leader in early childhood education work.
When Daniel was four years old, his mother remarried Daniel’s stepfather, Peter Haas, longtime CEO and Chairman of Levi’s, an iconic San Francisco brand. From his stepfather, Peter, Daniel learned the value of progressive business practices. Daniel is proud that Levi’s opened one of the first desegregated factories, upheld rights for the LGBTQ+ community long before it was required by law, and fought for gun safety and voting rights.
Daniel’s father remarried Caroline Fromm Lurie, a licensed clinical social worker, artist, and President of the Board of the Fromm Institute.
