He is the founder of the film production company Oak Productions.
As a Republican candidate, Schwarzenegger was first elected on October 7, 2003, in a special recall election to replace then-governor Gray Davis. He collected 48.6% of the vote, 17 points ahead of the vice-democrat Cruz Bustamante. He was sworn in on Nov. 17 to serve the remainder of Davis’ term, and was re-elected in the 2006 California governor’s election with an increased vote share of 55.9% to serve a full term as governor. In 2011, he reached the limit of his term as governor and resumed his acting career.
Schwarzenegger has been nicknamed the “Austrian Oak” in his bodybuilding days, “Arnie” or “Schwarzy” during his acting career, and “The Governator” (a coat rack of “Governor” and “Terminator”) during his political career. He married Maria Shriver, the niece of President John F. Kennedy, in 1986. They separated in 2011 after admitting to fathering a child with their maid in 1997, and their divorce was finalized in 2017.
