An Evening with Michelle Obama

Michelle Obama is one of the most iconic, inspiring and compelling women of our era.

As first lady of the United States of America—the first African-American to serve in that role—she helped create the most welcoming and inclusive White House in history, while also establishing herself as a powerful advocate for women and girls in the U.S. and around the world.

Drawing from the intimate reflections of her powerful and best-selling memoir, Becoming, delegates will hear firsthand Mrs. Obama's experiences and events, both public and private, that have shaped her, from her childhood on the South Side of Chicago to her years as an executive balancing the demands of motherhood and work, to her years spent at the most famous address in the world.
