How She Empowers Others

Maria Shriver is a mother, wife, daughter, sister and friend, who proudly served as the First Lady of California. An award-winning journalist and best-selling author, Shriver transformed the office of First Lady by approaching it not simply as a role, but as a job with real purpose and a platform to make a difference.  Shriver became California’s First Lady when her husband, Arnold Schwarzenegger, became the 38th Governor
of California on November 17, 2003.

From day one, Shriver made the position her own by combining her journalist’s eye for the needs of real people, with a deeply-ingrained passion for service and activism, and a creative entrepreneurial spirit and vision that embraces bold ideas.  She used her voice to advocate on behalf of women, the working poor, the intellectually disabled and families struggling with Alzheimer’s.
