Kellyanne Conway is a prominent American political consultant, strategist, and pollster. Known for her role as a senior advisor to former President Donald Trump, she served as his campaign manager in 2016, becoming the first woman to successfully manage a winning U.S. presidential campaign. Her background includes extensive work in Republican politics, and she is well-regarded for her expertise in polling and messaging.
Conway is known for her adept media appearances and her memorable phrase “alternative facts,” which she used to describe the administration’s perspective on certain issues, making her a frequent topic of discussion. Prior to her work with Trump, she ran her own polling company, *The Polling Company Inc./WomanTrend*, and provided analysis on political trends, particularly those affecting women and suburban voters.
Her personal life occasionally intersected with her public role, as her husband, George Conway, is a lawyer and outspoken critic of Trump, which led to considerable media interest. In 2020, Conway announced her departure from the White House to focus on her family, though she remains an influential voice within conservative circles.
