Reviews"Impressively reported... Mary Jordan has pulled back the veil. It reveals the first lady to be a power player in her own right, one driven by a very clear sense of her own self-interest." -- Karen Tumulty, The Washington Post, "A new, scrupulously reported biography by Washington Post reporter Mary Jordan... [argues] that the first lady is not a pawn but a player... and a woman able to get what she wants from one of the most powerful and transparently vain men in the world ... The result is a convincing case that those 'who dismiss her as nothing more than an accessory do not understand her or her influence.'" -- NPR "Jordan diligently assembles the facts on the Access Hollywood scandal, the Stormy Daniels affair, the plagiarized convention speech, and the bizarre jacket at the border, among other events. The author's presentation often achieves the simple elegance her subject aspires to. Interesting and fair--as complete a portrait as we can expect of the current first lady." -- Kirkus Reviews, "[THE ART OF HER DEAL] adds depth to the prevailing portrait of Melania as merely an 'elegant accessory' to her husband." -- Publishers Weekly, "Well-reported...[Jordan] brings new information about this unconventional first lady to the surface." -- New York Times "An extraordinary work of discovery and empathy... The Art of Her Deal is beyond all doubt an extraordinary book. It is impeccably reported and written -- light, clear, engaging and honest throughout." -- Salon "Far from the helpless stereotype that has become a running punchline, Jordan's research reveals something larger: the personality and strategy required to become a successful despot's wife. ... Jordan deftly, and without an agenda, decodes Melania." -- NBC News

SynopsisIn this "scrupulously reported biography" (NPR) Jordan documents how Melania Trump had discussing being First Lady nearly two decades before she landed in the White House and how she encouraged her husband to enter the race for president. Based on interviews with more than one hundred people in five countries, The Art of Her Deal: The Untold Story of Melania Trump is "an extraordinary work" ( Salon ) that draws an unprecedented portrait of the first lady. We see that behind the scenes Melania Trump is not only part of President Trump's inner circle, but for some key decisions she has been his single most influential advisor. Jordan interviewed key people in Melania's close circle who speak publicly for the first time and uncovered never-before-seen photos and tapes of the tall woman with "tiger eyes," as a judge in an early modeling contest said. The Art of Her Deal shows Melania's ascent from a modest life, tracing her journey from childhood under a communist dictator to her complicated relationship with Donald Trump. The picture that emerges is "that the first lady is not a pawn but a player... and a woman able to get what she wants from one of the most powerful and transparently vain men in the world" (NPR). And while it is her husband who became famous for the phrase "the art of the deal," this is the story of the art of her deal.
