Let's make this birthday one to remember.

68 years old (Born on November 14, 1956)

Happy Birthday, Valerie Jarrett! Once again, you've outlasted presidencies, fashion trends, and even White House staff shakeups. Your advisory skills are so legendary that Barack and Michelle still have you on speed dial—we suspect it's a lifetime appointment.

From navigating the halls of power with unmatched wit and grace to remaining effortlessly chic under pressure (seriously, what's your secret?), your enduring friendship and savvy insights have left an indelible mark. Enjoy celebrating another year wiser—though we doubt anyone could top advising presidents as a daily job. Here's hoping this birthday brings joy equal to the countless smiles you’ve brought others!
