Clinton Chief of Staff Shares Insights and Stories From Her Memoir
Huma Abedin, Chief of Staff to Hillary Clinton and a prominent figure in American politics, will discuss her memoir, Both/And, as part of the Malibu Library Speaker Series on Tuesday, Nov. 20, at 7 p.m. The event will be held at Malibu City Hall.
“Malibu is honored to welcome Huma Abedin to our Library Speaker Series, where she’ll share her firsthand experiences and insights from working at the highest levels of American and international politics,” said Mayor Doug Stewart. “Her journey and reflections on identity, resilience, and purpose will resonate and offer an inspiring evening for our community.”
Abedin’s career in public service began in 1996 as an intern in then-First Lady Hillary Clinton’s office. She later served as a senior advisor to Clinton in the U.S. Senate, Deputy Chief of Staff at the State Department, and traveling Chief of Staff for Clinton’s 2008 presidential campaign. In 2016, she was Vice Chair of Clinton’s historic presidential campaign, which resulted in Clinton becoming the first woman nominated for president by a major political party.
Born in the U.S. and raised in Saudi Arabia, Abedin moved back to the U.S. in 1993. In her memoir, Both/And, she explores themes of family, legacy, identity, faith, marriage, motherhood, and her storied career in public service.
The event is free, but RSVPs are required. It will take place at Malibu City Hall, 23825 Stuart Ranch Road. For more information and to RSVP, visit www.MalibuCity.org/LibrarySpeakers.
