Sasha Obama Biography

While living with her family in Chicago, she attended ‘University of Chicago Laboratory Schools’ where she remained busy with studies, tennis, gymnastics, tap and piano lessons. The otherwise usual and care-free life of Sasha weaved within the close circle of family and friends went on for a majestic change in 2009, when she stepped into the White House as the youngest daughter of the newly elected 44th President of the US, Barack Obama. While paparazzi focussed on every move of her family, little Sasha seemed to have enjoyed every moment of it with great élan. She grabbed special attention as the youngest kid to be residing in the White house after John F. Kennedy Jr., who came to reside in White House as an infant in 1961.
