DESCRIPTORS *Archives; *Authors; *Females; Modern History; Presidents of the United States; Primary Sources; Resource Materials; Social History; *United States History IDENTIFIERS *First Ladies (United States); *Personal Writing; Public Records; Social Power; Twentieth Century; Womens History ABSTRACT This collection of essays about the Presidential wives of the 20th century through Nancy Reagan. An exploration of the records of first ladies will elicit diverse insights about the historical impact of these women in their times. Interpretive theories that explain modern first ladies are still tentative and exploratory. The contention in the essays, however, is that whatever direction historical writing on presidential wives may follow, there is little question that the future role of first ladies is more likely to expand than to recede to the days of relatively silent and passive helpmates. Following a foreword and an introduction, essays in the collection and their authors are, as follows: "Meeting a New Century: The Papers of Four Twentieth-Century First Ladies" (Mary M.

    For Immediate Release: Monday, September 29, 2003 Ranking America’s First Ladies Eleanor Roosevelt Still #1 nd Abigail Adams Regains 2 Place Hillary moves from 2 nd to 5 th ; Jackie Kennedy from 7 th th to 4 Mary Todd Lincoln Up From Usual Last Place Loudonville, NY - After the scrutiny of three expert opinion surveys over twenty years, Eleanor Roosevelt is still ranked first among all other women who have served as America’s First Ladies, according to a recent expert opinion poll conducted by the Siena (College) Research Institute (SRI). In other news, Mary Todd Lincoln (36 th ) has been bumped up from last place by Jane Pierce (38 th ) and Florence Harding (37 th ). The Siena Research Institute survey, conducted at approximate ten year intervals, asks history professors at America’s colleges and universities to rank each woman who has been a First Lady, on a scale of 1-5, five being excellent, in ten separate categories: *Background *Integrity *Intelligence *Courage *Value to the *Leadership *Being her own *Public image country woman *Accomplishments *Value to the President “It’s a tracking study,” explains Dr. Douglas Lonnstrom, Siena College professor of statistics and co-director of the First Ladies study with Thomas Kelly, Siena professor-emeritus of American studies. “This is our third run, and we can chart change over time.” Siena Research Institute is well known for its Survey of American Presidents, begun in 1982 during the Reagan Administration and continued during the terms of presidents George H. Bush, Bill Clinton and George W. Bush (http://www.siena.edu/sri/results/02AugPresidentsSurvey.htm ).

  • September 17, 2015
    September 17, 2015 - February 26, 2016 As the highest representatives of the people and government, the President and First Lady accept gifts on behalf of the United States of America. Each year they receive thousands of gifts from every state in the nation and every country in the world. As part of diplomatic tradition and protocol, they also exchange gifts with heads of state. The ceremonial gifts given to foreign leaders bear symbolic meaning as tokens of peaceful coexistence between peoples of different cultures. Unlike diplomatic gifts, presents given to an individual, friend or organization by the First Lady are often more humble and heartfelt, patriotic and personal. They are not given out of tradition or obligation. These types of gifts are more sentimental mementos of personal friendship or an acknowledgement of support.

  • White House “Tails”
    White House “Tails” Pets of the First Families he nine papier-mâché figures representing the beloved pets of some our nation’s First Families, T were first used by First Lady Laura Bush in her 2002 White House Christmas entitled All Creatures Great and Small. Florists and calligraphers, part of the regular White House staff, were called upon to create over 20 of the special ornaments that represented pets ranging from the ordinary to very extraordinary. Most First Families owned pets when they took up residence in the Executive Mansion, and occasionally more creatures great and small were acquired during each President’s administration. Many pets were gifts to the First Families from other countries. Some gifts, like the Russian dog, Pushinka, lived in the White House. Other more exotic ones were given to the National Zoo. Goats, cows, sheep, and horses that lived at the White House were working animals. Other animals just wandered onto to lawn of the White House or into the mansion itself and were either “adopted” or evicted by members of the First Families. Regardless of how the pets arrived or how long they remained with the Presidential families, each of their stories is fun and historic. The National First Ladies’ Library is proud to share with our guests the opportunity to see nine of the pet ornaments. We are aware of the distinct honor of hosting our “White House guests” and sincerely thank President George W. Bush for this rare loan of historic White House artifacts.

  • Hello Dolley! and Jackie and Mamie and Nancy....A Brief History of Showing 'Skin' in the White House
    Carl Sferrazza Anthony Historian of the National First Ladies' Library Posted March 2, 2009 | 07:04 PM (EST) The Huffington Post Hello Dolley! And Jackie and Mamie and Nancy....A Brief History of Showing 'Skin' In The White House As far as her wearing a sleeveless dress, Michelle Obama revives a bit of a retro in posing for her first official White House photo portrait. The only other First Lady to be photographed in sleeveless clothing for their official picture was the self-defined hostess, housekeeper and wife of a Republican president who reigned in the conservative Fifties -- Mamie Eisenhower. Otherwise, the fuller length image, set in a distinct area of the White House (the Blue Room) is traditional, in line with those of Betty Ford on the Truman Balcony, Pat Nixon in the East Room, Nancy Reagan in the Red Room, and Lady Bird Johnson in front of the fountain on the South Lawn. Others (Jacqueline Kennedy, Rosalynn Carter, Barbara Bush, Hillary Clinton and Laura Bush) chose headshot portraits. To those familiar with some First Lady history, there is something humorous in the current so-called "debate" about how much publicly-exposed skin is "socially acceptable" by First Ladies. Although currently driven by women's, celebrity and clothing media, it's been a debate since practically the start of the presidency. When Dolley Madison (1809-1817) famously wore her low-cut dresses that showed off her shoulders and the top of her bosom, former First Lady Abigail Adams snidely remarked in a private letter that Mrs. Madison looked like "a nursing mother." There was a famous anecdote about Dolley Madison encountering an old friend who, like her, had been a Quaker, but left the faith.

  • Zoom in on America American First Ladies the Office of the First Lady Did Not Formally Exist Until the Presidency of Jimmy Carter in the 1970S
    September 2014 A Monthly Publication of the U.S. Consulate Krakow Volume X. Issue 119 f i r s t l a d i e s Jacqueline Kennedy (AP Photo) In this issue: American First Ladies Zoom in on America American First Ladies The Office of the First Lady did not formally exist until the presidency of Jimmy Carter in the 1970s. First Ladies have, however, played a vital role since the founding of the United States. There have been 49 First Ladies in the history of the United States, and each has left an imprint on the presidency. With the passing of time, the role of the first Lady has risen in prominence. Along with women’s emancipation and the equal rights movement, the role of the First Lady also has changed significantly. Below is a list of the women who acted as First Ladies since 1789. Not all of the First Ladies were wives of the presidents. In a few cases, U.S. presidents were widowers when they took office or became widowers during office. In such cases a female relative played the role of First Lady. THE FIRST LADY YEARS OF TENURE Martha Dandridge Custis Washington (1731-1802), wife of George Washington 1789 - 1797 Abigail Smith Adams (1744 - 1818), wife of John Adams 1797 - 1801 Martha Jefferson Randolph (1772 - 1836), daughter of Thomas Jefferson 1801 - 1809 Dolley Payne Todd Madison (1768 - 1849), wife of James Madison 1809 - 1817 Elizabeth Kortright Monroe (1768 - 1830), wife of James Monroe 1817 - 1825 Louisa Catherine Johnson Adams (1775 - 1852), wife of John Quincy Adams 1825 - 1829 Emily Donelson (1807 - 1836), niece of Andrew Jackson 1829 - 1834 Sarah Jackson (1803 - 1887), daughter-in-law of Andrew Jackson 1834 - 1837 Angelica Van Buren (1818 - 1877), daughter-in-law of Martin Van Buren 1839 - 1841 Anna Tuthill Symmes Harrison (1775 - 1864), wife of William Henry Harrison 1841 - 1841 Letitia Christian Tyler(1790 - 1842), wife of John Tyler 1841 - 1842 Priscilla Tyler (1816 - 1889), daughter-in-law of John Tyler 1842 - 1844 Julia Gardiner Tyler (1820 - 1889), wife of John Tyler 1844 -1845 Sarah Childress Polk (1803 - 1891), wife of James K.
