Highly paid lawyer, first lady despite herself, world star. Sixty years ago, no one would have thought that Michelle LaVaughn Robinson Obama, born in Chicago in 1964 as the child of a machinist and a secretary, would one day make it to the White House. She’s living her version of the American dream – a glamorous life. Of course, there are also some dark sides, as can be read in her autobiography “Becoming – My Story”.
Michelle Obama – always human
Now she is celebrating her 60th birthday. Even eight years after she left the White House, Obama is still present: with her husband she founded a production company for films and later also for podcasts. The company produced for the streaming service Netflix, including the Oscar-winning documentary “American Factory” about the takeover of a former US car factory by a Chinese investor. In her own podcast, Michelle Obama hosted prominent interlocutors, including those from the media world.
The top lawyer shone as First Lady with qualities that still inspire her: warmth, warmth, she is “real”. A top earner, a career woman, but always human, not a boss, not a family mother actress, not a string puller. Happy Birthday, Mrs. Obama.
