About this listen

Accidental First Lady shares Kerry Kriseman's 22-year journey as the political spouse and first lady of St. Petersburg, Florida, the state's 5th largest city. This memoir offers an insider's perspective on the evolution of local politics, revealing the resilience, faith, and tenacity required to navigate the public and private challenges of a political life. Balancing her lawyer-turned-politician husband's demanding career, raising children, and surviving cancer, Kriseman discovered how to craft her own identity, separate from the "stand-by-your-man" persona. This story is one of quiet leadership, personal transformation, and finding my voice amidst the complexities of political life. For those interested in political memoirs, personal growth, and stories of overcoming adversity, Accidental First Lady provides an inspiring, behind-the-scenes look at the triumphs and tribulations of life in the political spotlight.
