Before Eleanor Roosevelt, first ladies took a very subservient role, playing hostess and dealing with children and other domestic issues.

Eleanor Roosevelt was the First Lady of the United States from 1933-1945, while her husband Franklin D Roosevelt was President.

Eleanor Roosevelt ran for State Senate and wrote an autobiography.

She also drafted the Declaration of Human Rights.

Well, why does one usually marry? She loved him and he loved her. In the Victorian Era, a lady and gentleman were not to be left alone unless they were engaged. Eleanor and Franklin got away on a walk alone and he proposed. They kept their engagement secret for a year, as requested by Eleanor's grandmother. And Theodore Roosevelt gave Eleanor Roosevelt (soon to be Roosevelt Roosevelt) away.

She is most well known for stepping in and taking over while her husband was sick. Also, she pushed for reform for women, children and minorities by convincing her husband into signing bills into laws regarding them.

I attended the Todhunter School in 1935 and 1936 in the 5th and 6th Form when I was 9 and 10 years old. I met Mrs. Roosevelt and experienced firsthand the extraordinary presence she conveyed, a sense that she actually cared about me! I felt this immediately upon looking [way] up at her and shaking hands with her politely and curtesying ( as little girls did in the 1930's). I can still recall the exact spot in the front left parlor (assembly room) of the brownstone at 66 East 80th Street that was the School where I was introduced to her. She had just come in the front door, and I happened to be nearby, I guess, and one of the teachers introduced me. She said, so directly and sincerely, it's hard to describe, "How do you, Annette." I said, "How do you do, Mrs. Roosevelt."

Mrs. Roosevelt was known to me as an important teacher who taught the older girls, in the upper grades. I had the underlying knowledge somehow that she was a very important person to the school.

strong, smart, disciplined, courageous, and caring

franklin D Roosevelt has 6 children

In a 1951 in a article, Eleanor Roosevelt listed seven people who in her estimation, shaped her life. The first two were her father and mother: her father provided her love and reassurance, and her mother gave her the unattainable goal of perfection. Madame Marie Souvestre, headmistress and a teacher at Allenswood School, gave her a sense of confidence, and her Aunt Pussie (Mrs. W. Forbes Morgan) taught her discipline.

But, it was the personalities of her husband and her mother-in-law that exerted the greatest influence on her development. It was their influence that made her "develop willy-nilly into an individual." Lastly, Louis Howe, her husband's political advisor, pushed her into taking an interest in politics.

"The Marines I have seen around the worle have the cleanest bodies, the filthiest minds, the highest morale and the lowest morals of any group of animals I have ever seen. Thank God for the United States Marine Corps!". Eleanor Roosevelt, First Lady of the United States.

By many accounts, Eleanor Roosevelt was the first "modern" First Lady. That is, she was a public figure, she was outspoken on issues other than just traditionally "female" subjects, and she used the mass media of her day (radio and print journalism) to express her opinions and advocate for the causes she believed in. This was not always received well by everyone in her society. Although she was very popular with many Americans, the fact that she was ahead of her time also made her unpopular and controversial with certain people who felt she was too public and too outspoken. These traditionalists wanted a First Lady who stayed in the background and "knew her place." Eleanor was certainly willing to raise her kids and talk about recipes. But she was also eager to improve the lives of black people and advance the role of women in society.

Her major obstacle was that it was the 1930s when she became First Lady, a very traditional time in American life. America was still segregated, and she had to accept that fact, whether she agreed with it or not, since a First Lady could not change the laws. Also, her desire to change things was complicated by the Great Depression: some middle and upper class women had made gains during the 1920s, entering college, finding work in non-traditional professions like law and medicine and business. But during the Depression, jobs were difficult to find and there was pressure on women to leave the workplace and stay at home, so that the men could take what few jobs there were. So, not only was Eleanor ahead of her time in being public and outspoken, but some of what she wanted to achieve for women and minorities was being thwarted by cultural beliefs and economic conditions.
