I went to Princeton and Harvard. I\u2019m a wife, a mother, a daughter, and a sister. I\u2019ve been a lawyer, a nonprofit leader, a hospital executive, and First Lady of the United States. I like to call these my \u201cstats\u201d \u2013 the shorthand we all seem to default to whenever we tell our stories. Where are you from? What do you do? What school did you go to? As I\u2019ve written my memoir, BECOMING, I\u2019ve spent a lot of time thinking about my story, mining it for the kinds of details I\u2019d usually just brush off or even forget about\u2014the narrow taillights of my father\u2019s car, a talk with my mother on a drive home, the heat of my daughter\u2019s forehead when she ran a fever. And in doing so, I\u2019ve realized that those surface-level \u201cstats\u201d don\u2019t really tell my story at all. This fall, I\u2019d like to share that fuller story with all of you on my book tour. It\u2019s the story of my humdrum plainness, my tiny victories, my lasting bruises, my ordinary hopes and worries. It\u2019s the story of who I am, truly, and I\u2019m proud of it\u2014blemishes and all.
