  Marsha Blackburn - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Marsha Blackburn (born June 6, 1952) is a Tennessee politician.
Blackburn's elective political career began in 1992, when she won the Republican nomination for the 6th District, which at the time included her home in Brentwood.
Blackburn's future in Congess appears to be reasonably secure, as Republicans have held the 7th District continuously since 1972 by margins rivaling those in the 1st and 2nd Districts in East Tennessee.
