Slaughter headed the Department of State under Hillary Clinton as Director of Policy Planning for two years until she returned to her professorship at Princeton in February 2011 to be more there for her children. She is President and CEO of the American think tank New America .

Slaughter became known internationally to a large audience through her essay Why Women Still Can't Have It All , which she wrote after her retirement from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs on the topic of reconciling family and work . In it she relieves women of the responsibility for this compatibility and calls for social changes to improve conditions.

Central message of her book What still needs to be done: So that women and men can live, work and raise children equally. (Original: Unfinished Business: Women Men Work Family , 2015) culminates in the fact that she considers the capitalism currently practiced in the USA and a family life to be incompatible.

Slaughter is married and has two sons.

In 2002 she was elected to the American Academy of Arts and Sciences and in 2011 to the American Philosophical Society .
