Eleanor Roosevelt (1884-1962), wife of Franklin D. Roosevelt, completely reshaped the role of First Lady in her years in the White House (1933-45). She envisioned the role of First Lady as much more than hostessing dinners and receptions. Eleanor Roosevelt held her own press conferences, wrote magazine articles and a daily syndicated newspaper column called "My Day," which ran for 26 years, until her death in 1962. She had as much influence as many elected figures. In an era when very few households had TV, Mrs. Roosevelt was a still a constant presence in the eyes of many Americans due to her regular radio broadcasts, newsreel appearances and newspaper column. She championed many causes during her lifetime, including womens' rights and human rights, and served as one of the first delegates to the United Nations.
