The show will be in a Q&A format, with the moderator to be announced. No word on if or how audience member questions will be handled. The press release promises “honest reflections on the experiences and events, both public and private, that have shaped her, from her childhood on the South Side of Chicago to her years as an executive balancing the demands of motherhood and work, to her years spent at the most famous address in the world.”
Becoming is No. 1 in 11 countries around the world, and one of the most successful First Lady memoirs of all time.
