Michelle Obama's legacy transcends categorization. Mrs. Obama was not only our first black first lady; she was President Obama's equal partner in marriage and parenthood and a tireless advocate for women's rights, education, healthy eating, and exercise. Her genre-busting personal style encouraged others to speak, to engage, even to dress as they wished. In an extension of his popular T, the New York Times Style Magazine feature, Nick Haramis has assembled nineteen essays from prizewinning writers, Hollywood stars, and political leaders--all of whom have been moved and influenced by Mrs. Obama's extraordinary example of grace in power. Here are original testimonials from Gloria Steinem, Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, Alice Waters, and Charlamagne the God, among others. Presidential biographer Jon Meacham supplies historical perspective. Actress Tracee Ellis Ross suggests that Mrs. Obama 'provided an antidote to all the false representations of black women that have inundated us for centuries.' Anna Wintour and designer Jason Wu celebrate the former first lady's impact as an international fashion icon. Two ninth-grade girls-- one in training to be a boxer--talk about how Mrs. Obama has emboldened them to be themselves. Here are some of the many facets of Michelle Obama as she continues to inspire us, a stirring reminder that the best of America once lived in the White House, embodied in one authentic, inclusive, and courageous woman.--Jacket flap. 600 10 Obama, Michelle,|d1964-|vAnecdotes. 600 17 Obama, Michelle,|d1964-|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01915904 650 0 Presidents' spouses|zUnited States|vBiography. 650 4 LITERARY COLLECTIONS / Essays. 650 4 HISTORY / Women. 650 4 HISTORY / African American. 650 7 Presidents' spouses.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01075830 650 7 HISTORY / African American.|2bisacsh 650 7 HISTORY / Women.|2bisacsh 650 7 LITERARY COLLECTIONS / Essays.|2bisacsh 651 7 United States.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01204155 655 7 Festschriften.|2lcgft 655 7 Biographies.|2lcgft 655 7 Anecdotes.|2lcgft 700 1 Haramis, Nicholas,|eeditor. 700 1 Dunham, Lena,|d1986-|ewriter of foreword. 700 1 Waters, Alice,|econtributor. 700 1 Adichie, Chimamanda Ngozi,|d1977-|econtributor. 700 1 Mock, Janet,|d1983-|econtributor. 700 1 Wu, Jason,|econtributor. 700 1 Richards, Cecile,|econtributor. 700 1 De la Cruz, Adasendis,|econtributor. 700 1 Rae, Issa,|econtributor. 700 0 Charlamagne Tha God,|d1980-|econtributor. 700 1 Steinem, Gloria,|econtributor. 700 1 Oswalt, Patton,|d1969-|econtributor. 700 1 Wintour, Anna,|d1949-|econtributor. 700 1 Jones, Rashida,|econtributor. 700 1 Meacham, Jon,|econtributor. 700 1 Camacho, Laura,|econtributor. 700 1 Sidibe, Gabourey,|econtributor. 700 1 Millett, Kate,|econtributor. 700 1 Ross, Tracee Ellis,|d1972-|econtributor. 914 FARM248019 994 C0|bGWV
