Eleanor Roosevelt

Outstanding program on Eleanor Roosevelt...
unique and personal way of communicating
information. -Kirkwood Historical Society

Anna Eleanor Hall Roosevelt was history's
longest serving First Lady. She was known
as an uncomfortable debutante, a tireless
worker for social causes, a newspaper
columnist and a delegate to the United
Nations. She fought the Catholic Church
on aid to parochial schools, the sweat-
shops in the Lower East side and was an
untarnished heroine in the fight to house
and feed the needy and make the world
a more civilized place to live.

Katz portrays her as the "conscience of
the nation" and as the "eyes and ears
of FDR". Moreover, she tells the audience
of Eleanor's wisdom and strength, her
commitment to democracy, and her
stance that Tomorrow is NOW.
