Why She Matters
In June 2009, the first lady replaced her top staffer with Sher, a member of her inner circle from Chicago. The two women know each other from their days working together in the Chicago mayor's office in the early 1990s.
Sher and Michelle Obama stayed close friends and co-workers over the years. Sher provided legal advice to the first lady and advised her on legal issues related to health care before being asked to step in as Michelle Obama's chief of staff in June 2009, as a replacement for the departing Jackie Norris. In November 2010, Sher announced she would depart after two year in the White House.

Sher's work has been primarily as a lawyer, but she has an extensive background in health care and public policy. For more than a decade before she joined the White House, Sher worked as the vice president for legal and government affairs at the University of Chicago's Medical Center, which has nearly 10,000 employees. The medical center described her job there as being "responsible for all legal, government, regulatory and community affairs. She also worked on governance issues."Sher served as a registered lobbyist for the University of Chicago Hospital system during that time.
Michelle Obama was working at the university's community service center, which she had founded, when Sher hired her in 2001 to be executive director of community affairs for the University of Chicago Hospitals. Sher wanted Obama to create an Office of Community Affairs, but "we really didn't know what this office would be, so it was really her creation," Sher said. Sher asked Obama to further integrate the medical center with the surrounding communities. Under the Healthy Communities Access Program, Obama established a program that helped patients get primary care so they didn't come to the emergency room with non-urgent complaints.

Sher is very close to Michelle Obama . Sher, Obama and Valerie Jarrett got to know each other while working in Chicago Mayor Richard M. Daley's (D) office. All three later worked together at the University of Chicago Medical Center. Sher also sat on the board of the University of Chicago's Lab School with Martin Nesbitt , John W. Rogers and Jarrett, all of whom are good friends with President Barack Obama .
Sher has given more than $24,000 to political candidates since 2000, and almost all of that money has gone to Illinois Democrats : Sens. Richard Durbin , Barack Obama and Carol Moseley-Braun and Reps. Bobby Rush , Jesse Jackson Jr. and Jan Schakowsky . She also gave money to former House Speaker Dennis Hastert (R-Ill.).

To that end, we brought in Franklin Leonard, a film executive who runs something called The Black List, an annual collection of screenplays that Hollywood decision-makers like but haven’t yet been made.
We wanted to talk to him about movies — why good movies don’t get made and bad ones do — and about the effect of things like “the mainstream” and “conventional wisdom” on culture industries. The parallels to the music industry showed up right away: you can replace the words “big name actor” with the words “big name rapper” in almost every exchange we have.
