My Take

Marilyn Quayle interests me precisely because she resists the flat label of political spouse. A Northwestern-trained lawyer who served as Second Lady, she also chose to write novels, which tells me she wanted a voice that was hers alone, not borrowed from her husband's office. Law and fiction are opposite disciplines, one all logic, the other all empathy, and the fact that she worked in both suggests a restless, capable mind. It would have been easy to disappear into a supporting role. Instead she kept her own pen moving. I find that quiet insistence on independence genuinely admirable.
