David Campos (born September 28, 1970), is an attorney and former member of the San Francisco Board of Supervisors representing San Francisco's District 9 (Bernal Heights, Portola, and the Inner Mission) from 2008 to 2016 when he termed out. His reelection in 2012 made him one of only two LGBT San Francisco supervisors. In 2014, Campos ran for the California State Assembly seat in the 17th District (eastern half of San Francisco), but lost to David Chiu.
David Campos was born in Puerto Barrios, Guatemala. His father was a meteorologist. His family first tried to cross the border when David was 11, but they were caught and deported. Around 1983, his father made it across the border and went to Los Angeles, where he became a carpenter. In 1985, at age 14, with his mother and two sisters, he fled Guatemala and emigrated to the United States. Campos graduated at the top of his class at Jefferson High School in South Central Los Angeles. He earned scholarships and admissions to Stanford University, from which he graduated in 1993 with a degree in political science. While attending Harvard Law School from 1993 to 1996, Campos became a permanent resident of the United States and met his partner, Phil Hwang. They married in 2014.
