Milwaukee, Jul 17 (PTI) Indian-American lawyer Usha Chilukuri Vance will deliver an address to the Republican National Convention on Wednesday just before her husband Senator J D Vance gives an acceptance speech of his being named the vice-presidential nominee of the Republican party.

A Yale law graduate and a trial lawyer, Usha, 38, who has so far maintained a very low profile, has been thrust into the national limelight this week after former president and Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump picked her husband, 39-year-old Vance, as his running mate.
