I knew one thing, though.
When I walked into the White House in 1996, I was prepared to outwork anybody and hard work got me to where I am,” she said.Born in the United States, Abedin moved to Saudi Arabia with her Indian father and Pakistani mother as a toddler and lived there until college, visiting the U.S. during summer breaks.
That experience and background made her a “novelty" in Washington's political circles, she said.Her Muslim faith and family were what she leaned on the most during her darkest days.“My parents very much, you know, taught us what our identity was and that was number one, you’re an American, number two, you’re a Muslim — and everything else is background music," she said. “As long as you had that grounding, as long as you had that place where you knew you could draw strength, where you knew you had a strong family to support you, everything was going to be OK.”Abedin's interview with the AP came after she took the stage for the the inaugural Forbes 30/50 Summit.
