Angela Marie "Bay" Buchanan (born December 23, 1948) is a prominent conservative political commentator who served as Treasurer of the United States under President Ronald Reagan. She is also the sister of conservative political commentator Pat Buchanan.
Buchanan was born December 23, 1948, in Washington, D.C., to William Buchanan, an accountant, and Catherine Crum, a nurse. She earned a bachelor's degree in mathematics at Rosemont College in 1971, and went on to receive a master's degree in mathematics from McGill University in 1973.
Buchanan was the national treasurer of the "Reagan for President" primary campaigns of 1976 and 1980, and the Reagan-Bush general election campaigns of 1980 and 1984. After appearing regularly on CNN's news program Inside Politics, she became a commentator for The Situation Room, and later Campbell Brown: No Bias, No Bull. She previously served as the co-anchor of Equal Time on CNBC and MSNBC, and during that time also hosted a two-hour radio talk show.
Appointed at the age of 32, Buchanan was the youngest person to serve as Treasurer of the United States. She held that post from March 20, 1981, to July 5, 1983, after which she was appointed Chairwoman of the President's Commission on Women Business Owners.
Buchanan managed her brother Pat Buchanan's three unsuccessful campaigns for President of the United States.
