After graduating from Harvard, Cameron Kerry went to work on his brother John Kerry's 1972 congressional campaign for the Massachusetts 5th district. On 18 September 1972, the day before his brother would win the Democratic nomination for the election, Cameron was caught in the basement of the building which housed his brother's campaign headquarters as well as the headquarters of opposing candidate Tony DiFruscia. Cameron was charged with breaking and entering with the intent to commit larceny, but the charges were later dropped. Kerry lost that election to local Republican and then-state legislator Paul Cronin.

In 1983, Cameron married Kathy Weinman, a Jew whose mother keeps a kosher home. Before the wedding, Cameron converted to Judaism.
