The inspiring life of First Lady Dr. Jill Biden
Dr. Jill Biden has been described as President Joe Biden's greatest political asset. Like many women of her generation, Jill holds her commitments as wife, mother, and grandmother at the center of her life. She worked as a teacher, attained a doctorate in education, and taught at Northern Virginia Community College. She broke barriers as First Lady as the first to hold a paying job outside the White House. Jill is the story of this extraordinary, ordinary American woman. From her earliest days dating Senator Biden, to her embrace of Beau and Hunter Biden and the birth of daughter Ashley, to her role by Joe Biden's side through Senate reelection race after Senate reelection race, to her years as Second Lady, and through Joe's successful run for the Democratic nomination for president, Jill has lived in the public eye. In this deeply reported biography, Julie Pace and Darlene Superville of The Associated Press reveal some of the private sides of Jill Biden. We come to see her particular blend of grit and hope, which holds the Biden family together through tragedy and good fortune alike.Binding Type: Hardcover
