First . . . student commencement speaker at WellesleyFirst . . . Lady of the United StatesFirst . . . First Lady to hold a postgraduate degreeFirst Lady to win a Grammy AwardFirst Lady to seek the presidency-Hillary Rodham ClintonAs a young girl growing up in the fifties, Hillary Diane Rodham had an unusual upbringing for the time her parents told her, ""You can do or be whatever you choose, as long as you're willing to work for it.""
Hillary took those words and ran. Whether it was campaigning at the age of thirteen in the 1964 presidential election, receiving a standing ovation and being featured in LIFE magazine as the first student commencement speaker at Wellesley, or graduating from Yale Law School-she was always one to stand out from the pack.
