As Washington, D.C., gears up for a busy inaugural weekend, I’m thrilled to share my conversation with Anita McBride of American University. Throughout her remarkable career, Anita has served three U.S. Presidents in key personnel and management roles, including as Chief of Staff to First Lady Laura Bush.
In our discussion, she shares her journey from campaign work to senior leadership, reflecting on the evolving role of the First Lady. Anita has co-authored a collegiate text and written the novel Remember the First Ladies, inspired by Dolley Madison’s iconic words. As a highly sought-after thought leader in this fascinating area of history, her insights are both engaging and enlightening.
Join me for a conversation with someone whose career I deeply admire, on a subject that is uniquely and quintessentially American.
