Dorothy Bush Koch, known as Doro, is a Houston, Texas, native who currently lives in Bethesda, Maryland. She is the daughter of President George H.W. Bush and Barbara Bush and is married to Bobby Koch (pronounced Cook), president and CEO of Wine Institute. The Kochs have four children 7-year-old Gigi, 10-year-old Robert, 16-year-old Ellie and 19-year-old Sam.
Mrs. Koch earned a bachelors degree from Boston College and currently attends Wesley Seminary on a part-time basis. She is working toward a masters degree in theological studies at the Washington D.C. seminary.
In an article published in the Frederick News Post, Doro is 13 years younger than the President. He left home for Yale by the time she was 6, but she says they developed a close relationship. "He was always a lot of fun, she said. "He's one of the funniest people I know, and I don't knowknow if the American people see how cute and funny he is." She is optomistic about her brother's cjhances for re-election, but said he would be gracious in defeat.
Does her new last name come from any of Ed Koch's relatives?
I believe her two oldest children are from her first marriage.
