Valerie Biden Owens, former Campaign Manager and sister of President Biden, joins Andrea Mitchell to discuss her new book “Growing Up Biden,” sharing her own story as a woman in a man’s world. “To get a seat at the table, my brother sat at the head of the table,” says Owens. “In that sense, I had an easier time breaking through the door. But I also, once he left the room, was viewed by not a lot, but enough, to be considered the token woman, or the token relative at the table.” April 13, 2022
