Wasn't Ed Brooke once Governor of Massachusetts?

I keep hearing on the news that Duval Patrick, newly elected governor of Massachusetts, is the first black governor of that state and the second black governor elected in the U.S. However, if I remember correctly, Ed Brooke was governor of Massachusetts years ago, and he was black. He also was elected to the Senate from Massachusetts. Has my memory failed me??
