But is she hot?

     Last Wednesday, First Lady Michelle Obama hosted a White House dinner with high school students and the most glam and accomplished of female stars in celebration of Women’s History Month. The guest list included Academy Award winning actors Geena Davis and Hilary Swank, Olympians Michelle Kwan and Lisa Leslie, comedian Ali Wentworth, and Grammy Award winning violinist Miri Ben-Ar among others.


     The event, the “Remarkable Women in DC Dinner,” celebrated women’s achievements and emphasized the importance of mentorship. Earlier in the day, Mrs. Obama and Hilary Swank paid a visit to Ballou High School in Southeast DC. Since her early days in the White House, Mrs. Obama has made it a priority to promote mentoring for students.  Find out about mentoring programs in DC here.

     Congress declared March as National Women’s History Month in 1987 to honor the extraordinary achievements of women in America.
