Obamas presidential library will also be located in Chicago.芝加哥是奥巴马从哈佛法学院毕业后仕途崛起之地，也是他们一家的故乡。奥巴马的总统图书馆也将座落于此。篇二：第一夫人米歇尔奥巴马离任后会干嘛?Next on Michelle Obamas journey: Figuring out next stepsWASHINGTON (AP) After eight years as first lady, what Michelle Obama does next will be one of the most talked-about questions when the Obamas leave the White House.华盛顿(美联社)随着美国总统贝拉克.奥巴马卸任时间临近，当了8年“第一夫人”的米歇尔奥巴马离开白宫后的生活也成了公众热议的话题之一。Shell have a variety of options after being a high-profile advocate against childhood obesity, a sought-after talk-show guest, a Democratic power player and a fashion maven.作为一个反对儿童肥胖的高调人物、受欢迎的脱口秀嘉宾、民主党派骨干、和“衣品”超高的引领时尚者她的选择可太多了。Just as the first ladys role is undefined, with each woman molding it to her personality, interests and comfort level, there is no script for what comes after the first lady finishes the job.正如每一位“第一夫人”的角色未明确定义一样它是这些女性们用自己的个性、兴趣和舒适程度塑造出来的，同样，对于第一夫人离任后要做什么，也没有脚本可参照。The widowed Jacqueline Kennedy remarried and became a New York book editor. Laura Bush continues her advocacy for literacy and women in Afghanistan. Hillary Clinton launched her political career with her bid for the U.S. Senate, even before her family left the White House.肯尼迪总统被刺杀后，杰奎琳肯尼迪再婚并成为纽约的一名图书编辑;劳拉布什持续关注阿富汗妇女的情况及其识字率;希拉里克林顿从竞选美国议员开始，启动了她的政治生涯甚至当他们一家还住在白宫时。Heres a look at what Mrs. Obama is likely to do, when at 53 years old she returns to private life on Jan. 20.以下就是53岁的米歇尔奥巴马在2017年1月20日返回到“平民”生活后可能要完成的事。R&R休息，度假President Barack Obama says hes taking his wife on a really nice vacation, because she deserves it.

Book publishers would offer millions for the rights to Mrs. Obamas insider account as the first black woman in the role and as someone who has said little publicly about her private life in the White House. Clinton got an $8 million advance for her 2003 memoir, Living History.几乎所有第一夫人都会这样做。米歇尔是入主白宫的首位非洲裔“第一夫人”，她很少在公众面前谈及她在白宫的私人生活，这份独特和神秘使出版商愿出几百万美元购买米歇尔的回忆录版权。希拉里克林顿2003年的自传活着的历史就获得了预付款800万美元。SET UP HER FAMILYS NEW HOME布置新居Breaking from post-presidential tradition, the Obamas plan to stay in Washington so their 15-year-old daughter, Sasha, can finish high school. Presidents usually leave Washington when they leave office, but the Obamas are renting a home in the wealthy Kalorama neighborhood. The Obamas also still own a home in Chicago.因为15岁的小女儿萨莎要完成高中学业，卸任后奥巴马一家将打破历任总统的传统，暂时不搬离华盛顿。之前总统们卸任后就会离开华盛顿，但奥巴马一家已在卡洛拉马高档住宅区租下一套房子。他们在芝加哥也有一套自己的住房。STICK WITH HER INITIATIVES继续公共事业Mrs. Obama has said shell stay engaged in public service and will keep working on the issues she focused on during her tenure.
