The genesis of Automation Alley can be traced back to Oakland County Executive L. Brooks Patterson’s 1997 State of the County address, where Patterson unveiled his vision for leveraging the combined strength of the county's high-tech companies into a national marketing strategy that could be used as a tool to attract skilled talent and cutting-edge businesses.
She was unopposed for the Democratic nomination to unseat the Republican incumbent, L. Brooks Patterson.
Patterson graduated from the University of Detroit Jesuit High School and Academy in 1958.
