==Background==
Kirsch grew up in Cambridge, Massachusetts, with her mother, a painter, and her father, an inventor and MIT professor. Because of dyslexia, Kirsch struggled through school and was told she was not a candidate for her first-choice college, Tufts University.〔 However, her tenacity and drive, which she described in a letter to the admissions office, was enough to gain her admittance to the University, where she served as a Tufts Community Union Senator and student member of the Board of Trustees.〔〔
Kirsch is the wife of Alan Khazei, founder of City Year and Be the Change and former candidate in the Massachusetts 2009 special election to fill the Class 1 seat in the United States Senate made vacant by the death of Senator Ted Kennedy. Currently, Kirsch serves on the Board of Advocates to Tufts University's Jonathan M. Tisch College of Citizenship and Public Service, and on the Boards of College Summit and Stand for Children.
