Michelle – biografija

Liza Mundy

Who is the woman Barack Obama calls "the boss"?

She knows how to be funny, sharp-tongued, cordial and tactless, articulate and demanding. Who is the woman Barack Obama calls "the boss"? This question is answered by Liza Mundy, a Washington Post journalist, offering in this biography a very interesting and precise portrait of the First Lady of the USA. Michelle grew up on the South Side of Chicago, the daughter of a utility worker and a homemaker mother, enrolled at Princeton in the midst of the affirmative action debate, and then continued her education at Harvard Law School. There she felt much more accepted and, together with her colleagues, preferred volunteering for the benefit of the poor rather than chasing awards.

The biography also contains a number of details from the marriage of the most dynamic couple in modern politics, which show how well the two complement each other: Michelle, a perfectly organized person who inspires awe, a pragmatist who strictly adheres to a plan, and Barack, a political charmer prone to introspection who is unable to throw socks in dirty laundry but aim for the stars.

Liza Mundy is a member of the Washington Post staff, where she has covered politics, popular culture and women's issues for more than a decade.
