Huma Abedin talks to Sana Safi

Women & Power: Both/And

 
Hay Festival 2022, 

As an American political staffer, Huma Abedin was one of Hillary Clinton’s closest aides during the 2016 US election. Her long-lasting relationship with Clinton has seen both women through extraordinary personal and professional highs, as well as unimaginable lows. She talks to broadcaster Sana Safi about her memoir, Both/And: A Life in Many Worlds, a deeply personal account of Clinton as a mentor, confidante and role model. It is also a candid and heartbreaking chronicle of Abedin’s marriage to former congressman Anthony Weiner, who was involved in a sex scandal that seriously impacted her life and career.
