They are neither elected nor appointed, yet they are some of the most influential women in the United States.

They are the good will ambassadors of the nation, and graciously host the visits of presidents, queens, kings, and heads of state from all over the world. First Ladies takes a look at the lives and duties of the first ladies of the second half of the twentieth century.

< Back to Courses Taught First Seminar 101, Section 6: "America’s First Ladies" Professor Paula A. Treckel Fall, 1999 11:00-12:15 TTH Arter 212 Course Description: From Martha Washington to Hillary Clinton, Presidents’ wives have played an important role in American life. Objects of both public adoration and vilification, their lives have reflected the conflict and controversy that surrounds the undefined, unofficial job of America’s "First Lady." While some have embodied the American public’s views about women’s proper role, others have served as role models for change. This seminar explores the history of the presidential couple and its evolution as an "ideal" in American life. We will study how First Ladies have reflected and transformed women’s roles and the Presidency, itself. We will learn how individual women struggled with the challenges of their "job"—shaping government policy and defining the direction and success of their husbands’ administrations. Special attention will be paid to modern presidential couples from Franklin and Eleanor Roosevelt to Bill and Hillary Clinton. Methods of evaluation will include the writing of two short papers, an annotated bibliography on a First Lady of your choice, leadership of two class discussions and participation in all other class discussions, and a research paper on a First Lady of your choice. (See Course Requirements , below).
