Name: Michelle LaVaughn Robinson ObamaPosition: Wife of Illinois Senator and

presidential candidate Barack Obama

Former vice president of community and external affairs at the University of

Chicago Medical CenterBorn: January 17, 1964 in Chicago, Illinois on the

city's South SideEducation: Graduated Whitney M. Young Magnet High School in

Chicago's West Loop in 1981Undergraduate: Princeton University, B.A. in

sociology, minor in African American studies. Graduated 1985.Graduate: Harvard

Law School. Graduated 1988.Family Background: Born to Marian and Fraser

Robinson, Michelle had two early role models in her parents. Her father, a

city pump operator and Democratic precinct captain, worked and lived with

multiple sclerosis; his limp and crutches did not affect his abilities as

the family breadwinner. Michelle's mother stayed home with her children

until they reached high school. The family lived in a one-bedroom apartment

on the top floor of a brick bungalow. The living room - converted with a

divider down the middle - served as Michelle's bedroom.Childhood & Early

Influences: Michelle and her older brother Craig, now an Ivy League

basketball coach at Brown University, grew up hearing the story of their

maternal grandfather. A carpenter who was denied union membership due to

race, he was shut out of the city's top construction jobs. Yet the children

were taught they could succeed despite any prejudices they might encounter

over race and color. Both children were bright and skipped second grade.

Michelle entered a gifted program in sixth grade. From their parents - who

had never attended college - Michelle and her brother learned that

achievement and hard work were key.College & Law School: Michelle was

discouraged from applying to Princeton by high school advisors who felt her

scores weren't adequate. Yet she graduated from the college with honors. She

was one of very few black students attending Princeton at the time, and the

experience made her acutely aware of the issues of race.

 

When she applied to Harvard Law, she again faced bias as college counselors

tried to talk her out of her decision. Despite their doubts, she excelled.

Professor David B. Wilkins remembers Michelle as forthright: " She always

stated her position clearly and decisively. "

Professional Career: After graduating from Harvard Law School, Michelle

joined the law firm of Sidley Austin as an associate specializing in

marketing and intellectual property. In 1988, a summer intern two years

older by the name of Barack Obama came to work at the firm, and Michelle was

assigned as his mentor. They married in 1992.

 

In 1991, the death of her father from complications related to MS caused

Michelle to re-evaluate her life. She left corporate law to work in the

public sector, first as assistant to Chicago mayor Richard M. Daly, later as

the assistant commissioner of planning and development.

 

In 1993, she founded Public Allies Chicago which provided young adults with

leadership training for public service careers. As executive director, she

headed up a non-profit named by President Bill Clinton as a model AmeriCorps

program.

 

In 1996, she joined the University of Chicago as associate dean of student

services and established the University's first community service program.

She was named executive director of community and external affairs and

served in that role until her 2005 appointment to her position at the

University of Chicago Medical Center.

Personal Although she resists the labels 'feminist' and 'liberal,' Michelle

Obama is widely recognized as outspoken and strong-willed. She has juggled

career and family as a working mother, and her positions indicate

progressive ideas on the roles of women and men in society. Despite Barack's

election to the U.S. Senate and his dual roles in Washington, D.C. and

Chicago, Michelle did not consider resigning from her position and and

moving to the nation's capitol. Only after Barack announced his presidential

campaign did she adjust her work schedule; in May 2007 she cut her hours by

80% to accommodate the needs of the family during his candidacy.

 

Michelle and Barack Obama have two daughters, Malia (9) and Sasha (6).
