She held the first press conference by a U.S.president's wife. She was the first to hold weekly press conferences and started writing a widely syndicated newspaper column, "My Day" at the urging of her literary agent, George T. Bye
The were numerous activities and events which she both created, lead, and/or participated in both before, during, and after her years as First Lady that represented new presidents. However if one is looking for the event immediate following FDR's first election to the Presidency (1932)- she was the first First lady to hold her own press conference. Furthermore she held the conference for female reporters only.
