Keiko Fujimori
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Keiko Sofía Fujimori Higuchi is a Peruvian businesswoman and politician. She is the daughter of former Peruvian President Alberto Fujimori and Susana Higuchi. At 17 years old, as a consequence of her parents' divorce, she became the youngest First Lady in Peru and in the history of the Americas.
In 2004, Fujimori married Mark Villanella, an American citizen from Berkeley Heights, New Jersey. After over a year of residence in the United States, she returned to Peru to announce her father's candidacy in the April 2006 Peruvian presidential election, even though he was forbidden to participate in any political activity until 2011 under a congressional ban.
While in the United States Keiko attended the highly regarded Columbia Business School in Manhattan for a year and a half and obtained a Business degree from Boston University School of Management.
In April 2006, while her father was detained in neighboring Chile, Keiko Fujimori was elected congresswoman for the Peruvian Congress, obtaining the highest vote nationwide.
