Hillary Clinton Takes on New Role Inside the White House

Hillary Clinton is returning to the White House for her first public appearance since the Obama years to announce the recipients of the Praemium Imperiale, an annual global arts prize. Throughout her various roles as first lady, senator, and secretary of state, Clinton has had a complex relationship with the White House. She has been a wife, mother, hostess, and policy influencer, but fell short in her bids for the presidency. Clinton's love for the arts and her engagement with cultural initiatives during her time as first lady will be highlighted during her visit. Her portrait as first lady still hangs in a hallway on the ground floor of the White House.
