Career
Albright was appointed US Ambassador to the United Nations, her first diplomatic post, shortly after Bill Clinton was inaugurated.
Memorable Quote
On May 12, 1996, Albright defended UN sanctions against Iraq on a 60 Minutes segment in which Lesley Stahl asked her "We have heard that half a million children have died. I mean, that's more children than died in Hiroshima. And, you know, is the price worth it?" and Albright replied "we think the price is worth it."[1]
