Sunday Globe Special: Chelsea Clinton's Kid

"Chelsea Clinton gives birth to daughter" by Amy Chozick and Nicholas Kulish | New York Times   September 28, 2014

NEW YORK — Former President Bill Clinton and former Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton finally have the titles they have long wanted: Grandpa and Grandma.

Their daughter, Chelsea, gave birth to her first child — with her husband, Marc Mezvinsky — on Friday and posted the news on Twitter early Saturday.

As late as Wednesday afternoon, Clinton was on stage delivering speeches and moderating panels at the Clinton Global Initiative gathering in New York. The Clintons’ soon-to-arrive grandbaby was a constant topic of conversation at the meeting.

Chelsea Clinton, 34, announced her pregnancy in April at an event on the Lower East Side of Manhattan, her mother at her side and her husband watching from the back of the room.

The baby arrives as the family, never out of the spotlight since Bill Clinton was elected president in 1992, has moved center stage amid speculation that Hillary Clinton will run for president, a decision that is considered probable but that she has remained coy about. She has said the baby’s arrival could be a factor in her decision....

Chelsea Clinton, the vice chairwoman of the Bill, Hillary & Chelsea Clinton Foundation, married Mezvinsky in 2010, and they live in New York.

She has worked at a hedge fund and the consultant McKinsey & Co. and holds degrees from Stanford, Columbia, and Oxford. Last month, Clinton announced that she was leaving her position as a special correspondent for NBC News.

Clinton has been a national public figure since she was 12, when her father was elected to his first term in the White House.
