  • The Honorable Susan Molinari Oral History Interview Final Edited
    The Honorable Susan Molinari U.S. Representative of New York (1990–1997) Oral History Interview Final Edited Transcript January 8, 2016 Office of the Historian U.S. House of Representatives Washington, D.C. “We all bring our experiences to a discussion, and there are all different experiences, and so I did take very seriously the experience of being a female and bringing that to the discussion. I was not one of those people—sometimes I would go up to somebody and say they did this, and they’d be like, ‘I am not going to be the female legislator.’ And I totally respect that, but that was not me; I was going to be the female legislator. If there was something that was going on that was ticking me off with regard to women, anyplace, I was going to be the female. So, I took that very seriously. There was a reason I was there.” The Honorable Susan Molinari January 8, 2016 Table of Contents Interview Abstract i Interviewee Biography i Editing Practices ii Citation Information ii Interviewer Biographies iii Interview 1 Notes 57 Abstract Raised in a political family, Susan Molinari’s relationship with her father, Congressman Guy Molinari, greatly influenced her road to Congress. As the only Republican on the city council of New York, and the daughter of a well-known politician, Molinari used her notoriety and experience to win a seat in the U.S. House. She made history as only the second daughter to directly succeed her father in Congress. Her youth and political lineage garnered the attention of the Republican Leadership and the respect of her colleagues.
