<Marjorie Margolies knows a thing or two about parenting, and in her new memoir, "And How Are The Children?" the mom of 11 kids shares how she became the first single woman in the U.S. believed to have adopted internationally.
In 1970, Margolies was a TV reporter when an assignment took her to Korea for a series on adoption. She returned home with the beginning of her own story — a 7-year-old daughter named Lee Heh.
"(She) stuck out her hand (and) said, 'How do you do,' and that was the only thing she knew how to say," Margolies told TODAY’s Hoda Kotb on Tuesday. "So sweet."
Margolies became the first single woman to adopt internationally in the United States of America.
