Anne K. Small, wife of Matthew Colangelo and a former Obama White House official, donated thousands of dollars to President Joe Biden’s campaign while her husband serves as a top prosecutor in Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg’s office, focusing on former President Donald Trump.
According to Federal Election Commission records reviewed by Fox News Digital, Small contributed $2,800 to Biden’s 2020 campaign. Small has a history of supporting Democratic candidates, having also backed Barack Obama’s successful 2008 presidential bid and John Kerry’s 2004 campaign.
Small’s extensive legal background includes roles at the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and the Obama administration, where she served as Special Assistant to the President and Associate Counsel in the White House Counsel’s Office. She was the first woman named General Counsel of the SEC.
In addition to her legal career, Small has been on the board of directors of the NAACP’s Legal Defense Fund since early 2020. The organization has taken a vocal stance against Trump, including filing an amicus brief with the Supreme Court calling for his disqualification from the presidential ballot, citing the 14th Amendment.
The NAACP Legal Defense Fund’s actions drew criticism from some quarters, with Texas Republican Rep. Lance Gooden condemning what he described as “hyper-politicized courts” engaged in Trump’s criminal trials.
