The 'Hillbilly Elegy' author met his wife Usha Vance, while they were earning law degrees at Yale University.
U.S. Sen. J.D. Vance and his wife Usha Chilukuri Vance look on as he is nominated for the office of vice president on the first day of the Republican National Convention at the Fiserv Forum on Monday in Milwaukee.The 39-year-old Ohio senator is known beyond the Beltway and political circles, as is his wife Usha Vance, a high-powered attorney and mother of two sons and a daughter. The Cincinnati-based couple’s fashion style reflects their dual-sided work and family life.
Millions already know about Vance’s working-class background in Ohio from his 2016 memoir “Hillbilly Elegy: A Memoir of a Family and Culture in Crisis,” and the Netflix film based on that debuted in 2020. Before he orbited in political circles, the author grew up poor while his mother struggled with addiction. In his book, he described a world in Appalachia filled with poverty, addiction, family dysfunction, trauma and violence, and one that severely lacked economic or social mobility.
Vance’s attorney wife appears to lean towards business attire like traditional suits and sleek dresses. Downtime is for the more predictable short-sleeved tops, jeans and printed items. The Vances met at Yale University, where Usha earned her law degree, and served as the executive development editor of the Yale Law Journal and managing editor of the Yale Journal of Law & TechnologyDuring those years on the New Haven, Conn., campus, she participated in the Supreme Court Advocacy Clinic, the Media Freedom and Information Access Clinic, and the Iraqi Refugee Assistance Project. They married in 2014.
