Inside the Obama Presidential Center continues after this.
In the new branch of the Chicago Public Library, President Obama has chosen 3,000 of his favorite books to fill up the shelves of his presidential reading room.
Books from celebrated authors like Joel Lepore and Haruki Murakami and Isabel Wilkerson.
And, of course, one very particular author the president knows quite well.
Favorite book in the new library?
Of course.
Of course.
Very smart answer.
Becoming is the memoir written by Michelle Obama about growing up on the south side of Chicago, not far from the presidential center.
The former first lady has star power of her own, and her emergence on the global stage is also captured in the museum.
The display of some of her standout dresses and gowns has already become a favorite with visitors.
So here is what President Obama refers to as the exhibit everybody wants to see.
But let's be clear.
Michelle Obama was more than a style icon, more than a best-selling author, more than just Barack Obama's wife.
She was an integral part of the Obama White House with her own initiatives, her own fans, and her own critics.
Her presence at this museum is not an afterthought.
Her memorabilia is not pushed into a corner of the museum somewhere.
Her role in the White House is woven throughout the larger story, all over the campus.
You will hear her voice and her most famous speeches as you walk through the museum.
