Cara Lerner is the wife of Mark D. Lerner, a key figure in the family-owned Lerner Enterprises, a major real estate development company, and co-managing principal owner and Vice Chairman of the Washington Nationals Major League Baseball team. The couple, married since 1991, resides in the Washington, D.C. metropolitan area, including properties in Chevy Chase, Maryland, and maintains a relatively private life. Cara has been involved in the family's philanthropic activities, supporting initiatives through the Theodore N. Lerner Family Foundation, which focuses on education, health, and Jewish causes in the D.C. region. As part of the prominent Lerner family, founded by real estate magnate Theodore N. 'Ted' Lerner, Cara participates in community and charitable efforts, though she does not hold a public-facing role in the family's business operations. The Lerners are known for their significant contributions to local institutions, such as the Capital Jewish Museum (formerly the Jewish Historical Society of Greater Washington) and various educational programs. Details about Cara's personal background, including her professional history prior to marriage, remain limited in public records, reflecting the family's preference for privacy. Publicly available information suggests she may have been involved in the arts or cultural sectors, but this is not officially documented.
