# Imelda Marcos

> First Lady of the Philippines for 21 years under her husband's martial-law regime, she became synonymous with kleptocracy on a staggering scale - billions stolen from state coffers, 3,000 pairs of shoes, and a Guinness World Record for the greatest robbery of a government.

## Bio

Born Imelda Romuáldez on July 2, 1929, she became First Lady in 1965 when Ferdinand Marcos took power, a role that expanded into wielding significant political authority after he imposed martial law in 1972. Over the next two decades she ordered grandiose construction projects on impossibly short timelines - what critics called her "edifice complex" - while she and her husband siphoned an estimated $5 billion to $10 billion from the Filipino people, spent on art, jewels, and a notorious shoe collection during a period of national economic crisis. The 1986 People Power Revolution forced the family into Hawaiian exile, but they returned in 1991 to face charges; she won four terms in the House of Representatives, ran unsuccessfully for president twice, and in 2018 was convicted of corruption for her tenure as Metro Manila governor, a case still under appeal. She is the mother of current president Bongbong Marcos.
