Alternet quotes Dr. Katherine Jellison, Professor and Chair of History at Ohio University, in a story headlined “Is Melania Trump the Least Visible First Lady in Generations?”
In June, Agence France-Presse reported on the first lady’s “vanishing act” and her “unusual 25-day absence from public view” following her surgery. AFP asked Katherine Jellison, a history professor at Ohio University, to comment on the fact that Melania Trump keeps such a low profile compare to other first ladies—and Jellison responded, “I’m amazed Mrs. Trump has been able to do it…. For most of the 20th century and certainly in the 21st century, a first lady hasn’t had the option of not being a public figure.”
