Biden is a social worker. Krein is an ear, nose and throat specialist at Jefferson Hospital in Philadelphia.

“We’re happy to welcome Howard into our family, and we wish them all the best in their new life together,” said a statement from the vice president and his wife, Jill, issued after the wedding.
