U.S. first lady Michelle Obama arrives for a luncheon hosting first ladies at the Studio Museum in Harlem September 24, 2013 in the Manhattan borough of New York City.

*First President Obama had to scrap his scheduled Sept. 9 appearance at the home of “Friends” co-creator Marta Kauffman because of the possibility of military action in Syria.
