Chelsea Clinton

CHELSEA CLINTON
 
 
Chelsea Clinton  (born February 27, 1980) is the only child of former U.S. President Bill Clinton and former U.S. Secretary of State and 2016 presidential candidate Hillary Clinton.  She was a special correspondent for NBC News from 2011 to 2014 and now works with the Clinton Foundation and Clinton Global Initiative.  Since 2011, she has taken on a prominent role at the foundation and has a seat on its board.  (More from Wikipedia)
 
 

I have written about Judy Collins before; she is one of my favorite pure folk singers.  President Bill Clinton and Hillary Rodham Clinton named their only daughter, Chelsea Clinton, after Collins.’ recording of the Joni Mitchell song “Chelsea Morning”.  (Interestingly, “Chelsea” and “Clinton” are adjoining sections on the West Side of Manhattan, just above Greenwich VillageClinton is kind of a made-up name for the area that is also known as Hell’s Kitchen).  Judy Collins had her first hit with another of Joni’s songs, Both Sides Now
