Call her the world’s First Woman, she will answer but ask her to describe herself she won’t hesitate first and foremost to tell you she is Malia and Sasha’s Mom.
But before she became the total woman we know her to be-a mother, wife ,lawyer and a first lady, she was Fraser and Marian Robinson’s little daughter born and breed on the South Side of Chicago in an household filled with love, laughter and good morals
A proud product of Chicago Public Schools, Mrs. Obama studied Sociology and African American studies at Princeton University. After graduating from Harvard Law School in 1988, she joined the Chicago Law Firm Sidley and Austin, where she later met the man who became the love of her life.
Your passion will surely tend you to the full actualization of your talents. After a few years, Mrs. Obama decided to follow her true calling which is working with people to serve their communities and their neighbors thus, she served as assistant commissioner of planning and development in Chicago’s City Hall before becoming the founding executive director of the Chicago Chapter of Public Allies, an Americorps Program that prepares youths for public service.
Promoting service and working with young people has remained a staple of her career and her interest. Continuing this effort now as first lady, Mrs. Obama in 2010 launched Let’s Move!

In the same vein, in 2011, Mrs. Obama and Dr. Jill Biden together launched Joining Forces, a nationwide initiative that mobilizes all sectors of society to give service members and their families the opportunities and support they have earned, and to raise awareness of military families.
