Picture standing in front of the White House press corps with a spectacular black eye-not from a political battle, but from an actual boom microphone in Baghdad. That's how one of the most tumultuous periods in American history ended for the first Republican woman to serve as White House press secretary. The injury occurred during a classified farewell trip to Iraq and Afghanistan, so secret that families back home could only know their loved ones were "somewhere safe." When Afghan President Karzai gasped at the swollen, discolored face before him, the response came quick: "Don't worry, Mr. President-you should see the other guy." The joke landed, the Afghan president laughed, and President Bush rolled his eyes in that signature way that said everything and nothing at once. That black eye stayed through the final weeks of the Bush administration, cycling through every color of the bruise spectrum-a literal embodiment of what press secretaries do metaphorically every day. Yet even with that shiner, those final days represented the pinnacle of a journey that began with a seven-year-old girl standing on a milk box in Denver, clutching her father's flag and making a declaration that seemed impossibly ambitious: "One day I am going to work in the White House." Some origin stories begin with privilege and connection. This one begins with a fourteen-year-old German girl named Lena Marie von Pertz stepping onto American soil alone, and a Depression-era orphan named Dorothy sent to Wyoming to start over. These grandmothers built something from nothing-one became a "Rosie the Riveter" while her husband fought in WWII, the other helped build several successful businesses in Rawlins, Wyoming. They taught their children that a firm handshake matters, that eye contact means everything, and that genuine interest in people-from the CEO to the mailroom clerk-forms the bedrock of character.
