Michelle Obama was born in 1954 in Chicago. She was educated in a modest family, her father was a worker and her mother was a secretary. She met Barack Obama when he wasn’t the American’s president, and they worked together as a lawyer.

She is the first African American First Lady and she became a voice for women besides being an advocate against poverty, for nutrition and health. Despite being the president’s wife, she made a name for herself and used her intelligence and her influence to help others around the world. Since 2010 she has joined the Red Cross to help the victims of the earthquake in Haiti. She stood up against obesity and she established a law for schools to institute better meals than before, that is to say less salt, less butter, less oil to decrease youth obesity. This campaign is called “Let’s move”. Moreover in December 2015, she created another campaign named “Better Make Room”. When she was making this campaign she created a rap parody called “Go to college” to encourage students to go to university, and to give motivation to be graduated from the best universities. She used to go to Princeton and also to Harvard and now she is a lawyer, an author and the former First Lady of the United States. In addition to that she brought a program to make education better in under performing schools.

We consider this woman like the strongest of the world. Thanks to her generosity, this selfless woman offered opportunity to many students. She is our hero since she is a model to many women. In spite of obesity, she convinces people to take care of their health. Despite being a woman who lived in a modest family, she became one of the most powerful women. Michelle Obama triumphed in education and nutrition. For us, she represents the fact that a woman can succeed in her life. We can applaud her for all the things she is doing in her life. She has on us a good influence and she gives us motivation and hope to succeed in our lives. This great soul will always be engraved in our memory. To conclude Michelle Obama is a courageous lady and she make us better persons.
