Bourque: Tell us about yourself and your family.

Davidson: I was born in Baker, La., the oldest of three boys. After attending Baker High School, I attended Louisiana State University for both undergraduate and law school. While attending Baker High School, I met my wife. We married after high school and have three children, two boys and one girl. Upon graduating from law school, I practiced in New Orleans for a few years, before ending up in Alexandria. I was elected as a district court judge in 2004, retiring in September 2023. Currently, I stay busy with judicial assignments along with nonprofit and community projects, in between traveling and spending time with my grandchildren.
