Her journalistic career is over 30 years long. Her parents were both elected to Congress, and her mother was Ambassador to the Vatican under Clinton.

What about the rumor that she was given the nickname "Cokie" because of her affection for cocaine in the 1960's and 70's?

Her father was Hale Boggs, the only member of the Warren Commission not to agree with the magic bullet theory. In 1972, after accusing the FBI of bugging his telephones, his plane disappeared without a trace over Alaska. He was presumed dead. According to the Big Book of Conspiracies, he was driven to the airport by a young Bill Clinton.

One final note, from IMdB:

Real Name: Mary Martha Corinne Morrison Claiborne Boggs Roberts

Personally, "Cokie" is better.
