Abigail Anne Bartlet
First Lady
"I have learned not to ask my wife too many questions as it seldom
leads to anything but more confusion." - Jed Bartlet
| |
The First Lady, known simply as Abbey, has been married to Josiah Bartlet for over thirty years. She is the only person that can get in his face and give him the reality check he often needs. With a medical degree from Harvard University, Abbey is licensed in both thoracic surgery and internal medicine. On top of that, and mothering her three grown daughters, she is also an adjunct Professor of Thoracic Surgery at Harvard Medical School and on the staffs of both Boston Mercy Hospital and Columbia Presbyterian. She is spiritual (and has been known to use the Ouija board), but not as devoutly religious as her husband.

Bio pilfered from NBC: The West Wing.
What they say
"I have learned not to ask my wife too many questions as it seldom leads to anything but more confusion. I miss her very much." - President Bartlet
Jed: "She's skipping over the part that says, 'Wives, be subject to your husbands as to the Lord. For the husband is the head of the wife as Christ is the head of the Church.'"
Abbey: "I do skip over that part."
Jed: "Why?"
Abbey: "Because it's stupid."
