Kellyanne Conway has been called The First Lady of the United States, and her climb from polling strategist behind Trump's campaign, to campaign manager, to counseler in the White House has been closely watched by the media.

When she took office with President Trump, her and her husband, New York City lawyer George T. Conway III disclosed assets worth up to $39.3 million.  

Here's how the Conways have amassed their wealth, and spent it, since graduating law school.

After graduating law school from George Washington University, Conway worked as an assistant at a firm headed by Richard Wirthlin, who was Ronald Reagan's pollster and strategist. She later came to work with Newt Gingrich in the 1990s.
