Former first lady Jill Biden is ready to open up about her time in the White House.
The college professor announced Tuesday, March 11, that she penned a memoir about her and former President Joe Biden's time at 1600 Pennsylvania Ave. The book is slated for release on June 2.
"I entered the role of first lady in a unique time in our nation's history, in the midst of a pandemic and the shadow of an insurrection. Those days tested all of us – our resilience, our compassion and our belief in one another," Jill Biden said in an announcement video.
She said that "serving in the historic East Wing was the honor of my life," noting that "parts of this story have been told, but not all of it." Biden indicated the book would touch on Joe Biden's abrupt departure from the 2024 presidential race, after which Vice President Kamala Harris stepped in to run against Donald Trump, whom her husband had defeated in 2020.
Jill Biden told potential readers the memoir would reveal "what that moment meant for our family and for me personally."
