Book Description

The inspiring and surprising life of Dr. Jill Biden Wife, mother and educator, Dr. Jill Biden has been described as President Biden's greatest political asset. Like many women of her generation, Jill Biden worked hard to balance family and career, always placing her commitments to her husband, sons and daughter at the center of her life. From Jill's earliest days dating Senator Biden, to her embrace of Beau and Hunter Biden, the birth of her daughter Ashley, her role by Joe Biden's side through Senate re-election race after Senate re-election race, and what would eventually be three attempts to secure the Democratic nomination for president, Jill Biden has lived in the public eye. And now that she is First Lady, there is more curiosity than ever about her character, her personality and the ways she will shape the country. JILL is the story of an extraordinary, ordinary American woman. Washington Bureau Chief of the Associated Press Julie Pace and Associated Press White House reporter Darlene Superville, along with Evelyn Duffy, who has worked with Bob Woodward and others on politically focused projects, are writing a book that will show readers little-explored sides of the First Lady which feel especially relevant today. Whether providing leadership in her support of her son Hunter as he speaks publicly about addiction or her commitment to continuing her role as a professor at Northern Virginia Community College, Jill Biden is forging her own path, speaking for Americans who haven't had an advocate in the White House before.
