Susan Pat­ton became known as ​“The Prince­ton Mom” after a let­ter she wrote for her alma mater’s news­pa­per went viral. Overnight, her reflec­tions on what she’s learned about mar­riage and moth­er­hood since grad­u­at­ing sparked an inter­na­tion­al dia­logue. A human resources con­sul­tant and exec­u­tive coach, she is the proud moth­er of two Prince­ton sons and a long-haired dachs­hund named Lucille.
