Ben Keneally is an Australian Labor Party politician. He is the Mayor of Botany Bay,[1] and husband of former NSW Premier Kristina Keneally.[2][3]
Keneally grew up in Gladesville, New South Wales. Educated at Holy Cross College, Ryde and the University of Sydney, Keneally previously worked as a management consultant before entering politics.[4]
Keneally was originally planning to challenge Deirdre Grusovin for Labor preselection in the state seat of Heffron in 2003. However, Labor's affirmative action rules required a female candidate, so he stood down in favour of Kristina.[5]
