Biden attended Wilmington Friends School, a private school run by the Religious Society of Friends in Wilmington. [14] [13] [15] She was on her school's lacrosse and field hockey teams. [16] When Biden was in elementary school, she discovered that the cosmetics company Bonne Bell tested its products on animals. She wrote a letter to the company asking them to change their policy on animal testing. [17] She later got involved in dolphin conservation, inspiring her father to work with Congresswoman Barbara Boxer to write and pass the 1990 Dolphin Protection Consumer Information Act. [12] Biden made an appearance before members of the United States Congress to lobby for the legislation. [17]

She graduated from Archmere Academy in Claymont, Delaware, in 1999. [18]

Education and career

Biden studied cultural anthropology at Tulane University. [3] During her freshman year of college, she worked at Girls Incorporated, now Kingswood Academy, as a camp counselor. [19] She also interned at a summer program at Georgetown University, working with youth from Anacostia. [19] After college, Biden worked as a waitress at a pizza shop in Wilmington for a few months before starting her career in social work. [13] She moved to Kensington, Philadelphia, and started a job as a clinical support specialist at the Northwestern Human Services Children's Reach Clinic, assisting youth and their families with accessing resources and working directly with psychiatrists and therapists. [19] [13] She obtained a master's of social work degree from the University of Pennsylvania's School of Social Policy and Practice in 2010.

In 2014, Biden criticized the death penalty, stating that it is not cost effective and wastes resources that could go towards victim services and crime prevention. [19]

She founded the Young@Art program that provides resources and outlets for students to create artwork while they are detained in detention facilities, and then sells the art in the community. [19] Half of the proceeds of the art go directly to the artists, and the other half goes into funding the program to buy art supplies and to pay the wages of youth who work at the community art shows. [19] Through the program, Biden also teaches the students business and financial literacy skills. [19]

Fashion

In 2017, Biden launched the Livelihood Collection, an ethical fashion clothing brand, at Spring Place in TriBeCa during New York Fashion Week. [22] [17] [23] [24] The launch event was attended by Biden's parents and celebrities including Olivia Palermo and Christian Siriano. [25] [26] The brand collaborated with Gilt Groupe and Aubrey Plaza to raise $30,000 for the Delaware Community Foundation. [17] [27] [28] Livelihood's logo, an arrow piercing through the letters "LH", was inspired by Biden's half-brother Beau, who died of brain cancer in 2015. [29] [30] Biden stated that "[Beau] was my bow. His cancer brought me to my knees. I had no choice but to shoot forward, keep going, keep aiming at my own dreams." [29]

Biden created the brand to help combat income inequality and racial inequality in the United States. [17] [12] All the proceeds from the brand launch at New York Fashion Week were allocated to programs for communities in need. [31] [32] [33] Ten percent of the brand's continued sales are donated to community organizations in the Anacostia neighborhood of Washington, D.C., and the Riverside in Wilmington. [29] Livelihood's products are made with American-sourced organic cotton and are manufactured in the United States. [34] [35] She decided to design hoodies due to their connection to the Labor Movement, and their symbolic significance toward social justice movements. [34] [36] The brand's website provides information about civic engagement and economic justice. [34] [35]

Along with Colleen Atwood, Barbara Tfank, Rachel Zoe, Bibhu Mohapatra, Betsey Johnson, Calvin Klein, Oscar de la Renta, Anna Sui, Paul Tazewell, and other designers and fashion houses, Biden designed outfits for 12-inch vinyl dolls of the Peanuts characters Snoopy and Belle for the 2017 Snoopy and Belle in Fashion exhibition. [37] [38] [39] The exhibition kicked off on September 7, 2017, at Brookfield Place in Manhattan. [40] [41] [42] It toured in San Diego, Los Angeles, and several other cities throughout the United States before closing on October 1, 2017. [37]

In June 2020, Biden designed the uniforms for the staff at the Hamilton Hotel in Washington, D.C., as an offshoot of her Livelihood Collection [29] [43] [44] The uniforms were unveiled at a private launch party. [43] The hotel donated $15,000 to Livelihood. [29] [43]

Role in father's campaign

In August 2020, Biden spoke at the 2020 Democratic National Convention before her father accepted the 2020 Democratic Presidential Nomination. [45] [46] [47] On August 6, Biden hosted an organizing event for Wisconsin Women for Biden to discuss the Women's Agenda, released by her father's campaign, and bring awareness to women's issues in the 2020 United States presidential election. [48]

[49] They married in a Catholic-Jewish interfaith ceremony at St. Joseph's on the Brandywine in 2012. [17] [3] [50] Krein works at Thomas Jefferson University Hospital and as an assistant professor of facial, plastic, and reconstructive surgery at Thomas Jefferson University. [51]

Biden is a practicing Catholic. [52] She joined her husband, father, and brother in a private audience with Pope Francis in the Vatican in 2016. [53] [54]

Victim of diary theft

In 2020, Biden's personal diary was stolen and sold to the far-right activist group Project Veritas. [55] Two Florida residents admitted in federal court in 2022 to having stolen the diary as well as other personal items from Biden, transporting the items across state lines, and selling them to Project Veritas. [56] In early April 2024, Aimee Harris was sentenced to a month in prison, starting in July, and three months of home confinement; her co-defendant, Robert Kurlander, would be sentenced in the future. [57] [58]

Biden recognized that the diary was hers but added that her writings on it had been "constantly distorted and manipulated". [59]
