Episode Details

Join us today for a fascinating look at a lesser known historical figure who played a key role in the leadership of the free world. But this person  was never elected. Rather, she was the outspoken first lady to Woodrow Wilson who suffered a stroke and was impaired during his president.  It was his wife who carefully controlled access to him and in essence helped run the White House. Meet historian/author Rebecca Boggs Roberts as we discuss her new book, “Untold Power: The Fascinating Rise and Complex Legacy of First Lady Edith Wilson.”
