[Michelle] Obama attended Princeton University and Harvard Law School before returning to Chicago and to work at the law firm Sidley Austin [Dohrn was there], where she met her future husband...

I could find no other mention with more detail.

Other people in attendance:

The president addressed about 140 supporters — they paid between $7,000 and $20,000 for the reception — while standing on a staircase.

He said he felt like he was among neighbors and pointed out old friends, including the couple he said was responsible for him meeting his wife.

The fundraiser ended shortly before 10 p.m.,

The final event is a reception at the Hyde Park home of Evonne and Stuart Taylor, managing partner of The Taylor Group, a private equity firm. Tickets from $7,500/person to $20,000/couple. The host committee includes first pals Cheryl and Eric Whitaker, and attorney Jesse Ruiz, vice president of the Chicago Board of Education.
