**August 13, 2024**
Beatriz Gutiérrez Müller, wife of President Andrés Manuel López Obrador, launched her latest book, “Silent Feminism,” on August 13, 2024, at the Plaza de la Constitución in Mexico City. The event was part of the ‘Festival of Indigenous Cultures, Peoples, and Original Neighborhoods’ organized by the Mexico City Government and held under a large tent.
Gutiérrez Müller, an accomplished writer, academic, and historian, was joined by notable figures such as Claudia Sheinbaum, the President-elect, several state secretaries, government officials, and military leaders. The event’s speeches, including those by Gutiérrez Müller and other guests, were broadcasted by the Secretariat of the Interior.
During the event, praises were lauded upon Gutiérrez Müller for breaking the traditional “First Lady” stereotype, which presenters Delfina Gómez Álvarez and writer Pedro Miguel described as classist and hypocritical. In her speech, Gutiérrez Müller shared the intent behind her book, emphasizing the need for ongoing dialogue and announced her plans to step away from the political arena.
“I will retire from the political sphere; it’s not for me. Although I became a public figure against my will, I will also retreat quietly to live out my remaining life with the caution that characterizes me,” she stated in front of the National Palace.
Gutiérrez Müller holds a degree in Communication Sciences from Universidad Iberoamericana, Campus Puebla, and a Master’s in Ibero-American Literature and a Doctorate in Literary Theory from Universidad Autónoma Metropolitana. Before her current roles, she worked as a journalist for various outlets in Puebla and served as the Director of Dissemination in Mexico City’s Government between 2001 and 2002.
Married to López Obrador since October 16, 2006, she is a mother to Jesús Ernesto, her first child with López Obrador and the youngest of the president’s four sons.
