Early Life

Chelsea Clinton was born on February 27, 1980, in Little Rock, Arkansas. She is the only child of Hillary Clinton and Bill Clinton. She got her name after her family took a trip to the Chelsea district of London for Christmas in 1978. According to Hillary Clinton, Bill Clinton suggested they name their future daughter Chelsea after hearing Judy Collins perform Joni Mitchell‘s Chelsea Morning in 1969.

When Chelsea Clinton was two years old, her parents took her to campaign for her father’s gubernatorial race all over Arkansas. She was very young when she learned to read and write. Chelsea Clinton says she started reading the newspaper when she was three years old and wrote a letter to President Ronald Reagan when she was only five.

In the letter, which was copied and kept by her father, she asked President Ronald Reagan not to go to a military cemetery in West Germany where the graves of Nazi soldiers are. Chelsea Clinton attended Little Rock, Arkansas’s Forest Park Elementary School, Booker Arts, and Science Magnet Elementary School, and Horace Mann Junior High School. For whatever reason, she decided to skip Third Grade.

Chelsea Clinton‘s parents are both Southern Baptists; therefore, she spent her early childhood there until switching to her mother’s United Methodist church.

Education

In 2001, Chelsea Clinton pursued a master’s degree at the University College of Oxford (University of Oxford), where her father had studied politics as a Rhodes Scholar.

Chelsea Clinton became Assistant Vice-Provost for the Global Network at New York University in 2010, where she worked on strategies for recruiting people from other countries. She is a co-founder and co-chair of the Of Many Institute for Multifaith Leadership at NYU.

In 2010, Chelsea Clinton enrolled at NYU’s Robert F. Wagner Graduate School of Public Service for her Ph.D., but by 2011, she moved to Oxford to finish writing her dissertation.

In 2012, Chelsea Clinton got an award from the Temple of Understanding for her work with Imam Khalid Latif and Rabbi Yehuda Sarna to “promote a new model for integrating interfaith and cross-cultural education into campus life.”

Personal Life

Chelsea Clinton and investment banker Marc Mezvinsky got married on July 31, 2010, at the Astor Courts estate in Rhinebeck, New York. He is Jewish, but Chelsea Clinton remained a Methodist and did not convert to Judaism. Marc Mezvinsky‘s parents, Marjorie Margolies-Mezvinsky and Edward Mezvinsky used to be in Congress. They were raised in the Conservative Jewish tradition.

In the 1990s, the Clintons and Mezvinskys were friends, and their children met at a Renaissance Weekend retreat on Hilton Head Island, South Carolina. They were said to be dating for the first time in 2005, and they got engaged over the Thanksgiving holiday in 2009.

After getting married, the couple lived for three years in the Gramercy Park neighborhood of New York City. They then bought a $10.5 million condo in the NoMad neighborhood. On September 26, 2014, their first child, a daughter named Charlotte Clinton Mezvinsky, was born.
