Eleanor Roosevelt

Eleanor Roosevelt 1884-1962. This pioneering First Lady was an incredible force for human rights and progress for women.  This wonderful lady held press conferences, wrote for magazines, hosted a radio show and gave lectures. She even donated most of her income to charity.

Anna Eleanor Roosevelt was the longest-serving First Lady throughout her husband President Franklin D. Roosevelt’s four terms in office (1933-1945). She was an American politician, diplomat, and activist who later served as a United Nations spokeswoman.

We must want our fellow human beings to have rights and freedoms which give them dignity and which will give them a sense that they are human beings that can walk the earth with their heads high and look all men in the face.

She advocated for expanded roles for women in the workplace, the civil rights of African Americans and Asian Americans, and the rights of World War II refugees. Following her husband’s death in 1945, Roosevelt remained active in politics for the remaining 17 years of her life.
