Jill Biden’s memoir, Where the Light Enters , was part of the Biden family’s 2017 multi-book deal with Flatiron Books, an imprint of Macmillan. Public reporting did not disclose Jill Biden’s exact advance for that specific book, but reports said the overall Biden book deal was widely estimated at around $60 million for multiple books, not just hers.
Publisher
- Publisher: Flatiron Books, part of Macmillan.
- Jill Biden’s earlier picture book, Don’t Forget, God Bless Our Troops , was published by Simon & Schuster in 2012.
Money reported
- Jill Biden’s 2019 disclosures showed she received an advance for Where the Light Enters , but the public sources I found did not state the exact amount for her individual book.
- Broader reporting on the couple’s finances said much of their income in 2017–2018 came from book payments and speaking engagements, with the combined book deal described as a $60 million multi-book agreement.
In plain English: the publisher was Flatiron/Macmillan, and the exact cash Jill Biden got for her memoir was not publicly broken out in the sources available, only the larger multi-book deal was widely reported.
Would you like the answer narrowed to just Jill Biden’s memoir, or also her children’s book?
