Katherine Jellison, Professor of History at Ohio University, was quoted in an international story headlined Melania ‘folded like a deck of cards’ about a new book released this week, Melania and Me: The Rise and Fall of My Friendship With the First Lady, written by Stephanie Winston Wolkoff.
Americans “want to know about their First lady and, since Melania is someone who is really guarded, they want to hear more,” said Katherine Jellison, a historian at Ohio University.
“A strained relationship between stepmother and stepdaughter is very much entrenched in the public’s mind … it goes back all the way to Cinderella.”
