Following Clinton's win in the New Hampshire primary in January 2008, Williams was brought onto the Clinton campaign staff as a senior adviser. On February 10, 2008, she replaced Patti Solis Doyle as the campaign's manager.[3] Early life and educationWilliams was born in Kansas City, Missouri. She attended high school at Notre Dame de Sion in Kansas City, Missouri. She earned her B.A. in Political Science from Trinity College (Washington D.C.) in 1977, and was awarded an honorary doctorate in 2009.[4] Williams also received a masters from the Annenberg School for Communication at the University of Pennsylvania in 1992.[5] Early careerWilliams was an aide to Representative Morris K.

She served as Clinton's transition director in 1992 and as her chief of staff during her first term as First Lady of the United States (1993–1997), the first African American woman to hold that position and the first Chief of Staff to the First Lady who also served as an Assistant to the President. As stated in Taylor Branch's [https://books.google.com/books?id=iVGD72FBaBsC&printsec=frontcover&output=reader&retailer_id=powells_prod The Clinton Tapes], in 1994, President Clinton turned to Williams "to compile confidential suggestions" on personnel shifts ... According to Branch, "When I asked how unusual it was for the first lady's office to be involved, he replied there was no easy blueprint for reorganizing the organizers. Williams was shrewd, discreet, and efficient."[7] In a profile in Essence Magazine Ana Perez, who during George Bush's administration was the first Black person to serve as a press secretary to a First Lady said of Williams: "I am in awe of her...I have so much respect for her because she has this absolutely calm center and because she is a good and decent person. She's a do-gooder in every sense of the word."[8] She has been described as having "very good judgment on issues and people" by Leon Panetta.[9] Vince Foster scandalOn the night of the death of deputy White House counsel Vince Foster in 1993, a Secret Service agent claimed he saw Williams remove two handfuls of folders from his office, which she vehemently denied.[10] Post White HouseAfter leaving the White House, Williams served as the President of Fenton Communications. In this position, she became the highest ranked black woman in an American top-50 public relations firm.[11] Previously, Williams served as a communications consultant in Paris. President Bill Clinton asked Williams to be his chief of staff at the Clinton Foundation.[12] In June 2014, she was named Director of the Institute of Politics at the Kennedy School of Government, Harvard University. 2008 presidential campaignWilliams became the campaign manager for Hillary Clinton's 2008 presidential campaign after being brought on as a senior adviser following Clinton's win in the New Hampshire primary in January 2008. On February 10, 2008, she replaced Patti Solis Doyle as the campaign's manager.[13] and infused Clinton's campaign "with a sense of purpose" according to staffers.[14] In their book, The Battle for America: The Story of an Extraordinary Election, Haynes Johnson and Dan Balz wrote that with Williams in charge the campaign was more collegial and operated with greater efficiency.[15] Boards and affiliationsIn addition to her consulting business, Williams is a director of the Scholastic Publishing Corporation,[16] the Clinton Health Access Initiative (CHAI).
