Miss Truman visita La Habana, acompañada de su hija. (1948)
Bess found the White House's lack of privacy distasteful. As her husband put it later, she was "not especially interested" in the "formalities and pomp or the artificiality which, as we had learned..., inevitably surround the family of the President Harry Truman." Though she steadfastly fulfilled the social obligations of her position, she did only what she thought was necessary. When the White House was rebuilt during Truman's second term, the family lived in Blair House and kept their social life to a minimum. In most years of her husband's presidency Mrs. Truman did not live in Washington other than during the social season when her presence was expected.[citation needed]
The contrast with Bess's activist predecessor Eleanor Roosevelt was considerable. Unlike her, Bess held only one press conference after many requests from the mostly female press corps assigned to her. The press conference consisted of written questions in advance and the written replies were mostly monosyllabic along with many no comments. Bess's response to whether she wanted her daughter Margaret to become President was "most definitely not." Her reply to what she wanted to do after her husband left office was "return to Independence" although she had briefly entertained the thought of living in Washington after 1953
Elizabeth Virginia Wallace Truman (13 de febrero de 1885 -- 18 de octubre de 1982), comúnmente conocida por Bess Truman, fue la esposa de Harry S. Truman y Primera Dama de los Estados Unidos desde 1945 hasta 1953.
Elizabeth Virginia Wallace nació de David Willock Wallace (1860-1903) y su esposa Margaret Elizabeth Gates (1862-1952) en Independence, Missouri y era conocida por Bessie durante su infancia. Era la mayor de cuatro hijos, tres hermanos: Frank Gates Wallace (1887-1960), George Porterfield Wallace (1892-1963) y David Frederick Wallace (1900-1957).
Harry Truman, cuya familia se mudó al pueblo en 1890, siempre conservó la primera impresión que le causó ella cuando la vió en la escuela dominical: "Rizos de Oro" y "los ojos más hermosos". Un familiar dijo "no había otra muchacha en el mundo" para él. Fueron compañeros de escuela desde el primer grado hasta la enseñanza media superior.
Después de graduados de la enseñanza media superior ella estudió en la escuela preparatoria William Chrisman para señoritas en Kansas City, Missouri. En 1903 su padre se suicidó y ella retornó a Independence con su madre.
El estallido de la Primera Guerra Mundial alteró el lento y ceremonioso cortejo de Truman. El teniente Truman se declaró y estuvieron comprometidos antes de que el partiera para Francia en 1918. Se casaron el 28 de junio de 1919 y vivieron en la casa de la madre de ella. Hubo un par de niños que se malograron al nacer y varios abortos antes que naciera su hija Mary Margaret(1924-2008).
A medida que Harry se hacía más activo en política, Bess viajaba con él, compartiendo sus apariciones públicas tal y como se esperaba de una esposa de candidato. Su entrada al Senado en 1934 hizo que la familia se mudara a Washington, D.C. Fue elegido Vice Presidente en 1944. Al fallecimiento de Roosevelt el 12 de abril de 1945, Harry tomó el juramento presidencial. Bess conservó su compostura y se convirtió en la nueva Primera Dama.
Harry murió en 1972 y Bess continuó su vida silenciosamente, disfrutando de las visitas de Margaret y su marido Clifton Daniel que traían sus cuatro hijos. Bess accedió a ser la presidenta honoraria de la campaña de reelección del Senador Thomas Eagleton que era Demócrata por Missouri.
Bess murió el 18 de Octubre de 1982 de un fallo cardíaco congestivo. Se celebró un servicio funerario privado el día 21, después de lo cual fue enterrada al lado de su esposo en los jardines de la Biblioteca Harry S. Truman.
A sus 97 años ella sigue siendo la Primera Dama más longeva en la historia de los Estados Unidos. El único pariente cercano de un Presidente de los Estados Unidos que ha vivido más tiempo que Bess Truman fue la madre de John F. Kennedy, Rose Fitzgerald Kennedy que murió a los 104 años en 1995.

The spotlight did not appeal to Bess Truman. "She would return home to Independence as often as possible, leaving the President feeling very alone, often desolate," says historian David McCullough. "It's hard for some people to understand what she was like, and why the President was so devoted to her."

Bess Truman
Elizabeth Virginia "Bess" Truman (née Wallace) (February 13, 1885 – October 18, 1982), was the wife of U.S. President Harry S. Truman and First Lady of the United States from 1945 to 1953.
She had known her future husband since they were children attending the same school in Independence, Missouri. As First Lady, she did not enjoy the social and political scene in Washington, and at the end of her husband's term in 1953, she was relieved to return to Independence. She currently holds the record of longest-lived First Lady, having reached the age of 97 at the time of her death.
Early life and education
Bess Truman was born Elizabeth Virginia Wallace on February 13, 1885, to David Willock Wallace (1860–1903) and his wife, the former Margaret Elizabeth Gates (1862–1952), in Independence, Missouri, and was known as Bessie during her childhood. She was the eldest of four; three brothers: Frank Gates Wallace, (4 March 1887 – 12 August 1960), George Porterfield Wallace, (1 May 1892 – 24 May 1963), David Frederick Wallace, (7 January 1900 – 30 September 1957).

Harry S. Truman
Harry S. Truman (May 8, 1884 – December 26, 1972) was the 33rd President of the United States (1945–53), an American politician of the Democratic Party. He served as a United States Senator from Missouri (1935–45) and briefly as Vice President (1945) before he succeeded to the presidency on April 12, 1945 upon the death of Franklin D. Roosevelt. He was president during the final months of World War II, making the decision to drop the atomic bomb on Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Truman was elected in his own right in 1948. He presided over an uncertain domestic scene as America sought its path after the war, and tensions with the Soviet Union increased, marking the start of the Cold War.
Truman was born in Lamar, Missouri and spent most of his youth on his family's farm near Independence. In the last months of World War I, he served in combat in France as an artillery officer with his National Guard unit. After the war, he briefly owned a haberdashery in Kansas City, Missouri, and joined the Democratic Party and the political machine of Tom Pendergast. Truman was first elected to public office as a county official in 1926, and then as a U.S. Senator in 1935. He gained national prominence as chairman of the Truman Committee, formed in March 1941, which exposed waste, fraud, and corruption in Federal Government wartime contracts.

White House
The White House is the official residence and principal workplace of the President of the United States, located at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue NW in Washington, D.C. It has been the residence of every U.S. president since John Adams in 1800.
The house was designed by Irish-born James Hoban and built between 1792 and 1800 of white-painted Aquia Creek sandstone in the Neoclassical style. When Thomas Jefferson moved into the house in 1801, he (with architect Benjamin Henry Latrobe) expanded the building outward, creating two colonnades that were meant to conceal stables and storage. However, in 1814, during the War of 1812, the mansion was set ablaze by the British Army in the Burning of Washington, destroying the interior and charring much of the exterior. Reconstruction began almost immediately, and President James Monroe moved into the partially reconstructed Executive Residence in October 1817. Construction continued with the addition of the South Portico in 1824 and the North in 1829.

First Family Representatives included Margaret Hoover (great-granddaughter of Lou Hoover), Clifton Daniel (grandson of Bess Truman) and Betty Ford (daughter of Betty Ford). Rick Albin, Political Report for WOOD-TV, moderated the panel as they touched on the First Ladies more so than just their public positions, but as "mother, grandmother and great-grandmother". Each of these women represented vastly different times and enormously important parts of our American history and the Foundation was honored to host this special event. Margaret Claire Hoover is the great-granddaughter of Lou Hoover, wife of Herbert Hoover, the 31st President of the United States. Lou Hoover was the First Lady during Great Depression, which at the time was our nation's worst economic depression since the Civil War. Margaret touched on how Lou was a pioneer who broke the model of First Lades that had come before. Lou was the 1st First Lady to catalog the inventory of The White House furniture, paintings and household items. Lou was the 1st woman in the U.S. to graduate with a degree in geology, having graduated from the 3rd class from Stanford. She was the 1st First Lady to invite an African American women to tea, which caused such a scandal that it was called the De Priest Incident. Jessie De Priest was the wife of Oscar De Priest show as recently elected to U.S. Congress from Chicago and it was tradition to invite the wife of the Congressmen for tea. They knew it would be scandal but they moved to have her for tea and would invite her husband the next day for tea as well. Clifton Truman Daniel is the grandson of Bess Truman, wife of Harry Truman, the 33rd President of the Untied States. Bess Truman was the FIrst Lady during and just following World War II. Clifton touched on how Bess was vastly different other First Ladies, especially Eleanor Roosevelt who had preceded her. The 1st act as First lady, was to cancel Eleanor's weekly press conference, she rarely spoke with the press and believed that her role was to be behind the scenes to support her husband. Bess is the longest lived First Lady, having died at 97 years old. Her father's suicide when she was 18 shaped how she would interact with people and later on the press for the rest of her life. While The White House was under construction, the Family lived in the Blair House. Suzanne Ford Bales is the daughter of Betty Ford, wife of Gerald R. Ford, the 38th President of the United States. Betty Ford was the First Lady just after Richard Nixon's resignation due to the Watergate Scandal, end of the Vietnam War, American cultural changes and economic crisis. Suzanne touched on how Betty Grand Rapids molded her character, and how Betty was a cross between both Lou and Bess. She could be an activists when she wanted to be and she would want her private time away from the public image. Betty had accepted her breast cancer and was determined to work to change women's health care, as she rose awareness for the condition and rose to the occasion to help women everywhere. -

AIRimages is a London-based art collective founded in 2009, by Bettina John (Berlin), Jaime Leme (São Paulo) and Sebastien Freuler (Geneva). Their work playfully combines different approaches to the construction of images through the synthesis of different artistic forms. Their projects bring together photography, video and interactive media and put these in contact with fashion and performance to explore the possibilities of the image, beyond traditional understandings of aesthetic production. In often, an impromptu and unexpected situation for the participant, AIRimages challenges conventional image-making modes in order to understand image communication and discover new ways of expression. In doing so, the artists deconstruct and rearrange preconceived aesthetic values, analyzing different ways of producing an image, a piece of art. The search into this process of visual creation is key to their work. In this process-led activity they try to get closer to the grain of photography and show the world beyond the frame. Their photographs show not only the final result of a photo-shoot session but also the interaction between participants or models and the photographer, an event that happened beyond the intention laid-out beforehand, a real, unplanned happening. In that sense, the interest is not necessarily in the photograph, but in what is happening beyond the frame during the process of taking the picture.

Bess Truman
The spotlight did not appeal to Bess Truman. "She would return home to Independence as often as possible, leaving the President feeling very alone, often desolate," says historian David McCullough. "It's hard for some people to understand what she was like, and why the President was so devoted to her."

The President is a Sick Man: President Cleveland's Secret Surgery by Matthew Algeo
Sworn into his second term as President just months before, President Grover Cleveland disappeared from public view for five days. Cleveland had been diagnosed with the dread disease, cancer. In the midst of the Panic of 1893, the President insisted on total secrecy in order to insure the Country's financial stability. A team of top physicians and surgeons was assembled, boarded the Oneida, a friend's yacht, and headed toward open water to perform the surgery to remove the cancer. The story was picked up by well-respected journalist, E.J. Edwards. What followed was a successful campaign by Cleveland's supporters to deny and discredit Edwards' story.. Matthew Algeo is an award-winning author who enjoys writing about unusual and interesting events in American history. Algeo has reported fro...

Miss Truman visita La Habana, acompañada de su hija. (1948)
Bess found the White House's lack of privacy distasteful. As her husband put it later, she was "not especially interested" in the "formalities and pomp or the artificiality which, as we had learned..., inevitably surround the family of the President Harry Truman." Though she steadfastly fulfilled the social obligations of her position, she did only what she thought was necessary.

In most years of her husband's presidency Mrs. Truman did not live in Washington other than during the social season when her presence was expected.[citation needed]
The contrast with Bess's activist predecessor Eleanor Roosevelt was considerable. Unlike her, Bess held only one press conference after many requests from the mostly female press corps assigned to her. The press conference consisted of written questions in advance and the written replies were mostly monosyllabic along with many no comments. Bess's response to whether she wanted her daughter Margaret to become President was "most definitely not." Her reply to what she wanted to do after her husband left office was "return to Independence" although she had briefly entertained the thought of living in Washington after 1953
Elizabeth Virginia Wallace Truman (13 de febrero de 1885 -- 18 de octubre de 1982), comúnmente conocida por Bess Truman, fue la esposa de Harry S. Truman y Primera Dama de los Estados Unidos desde 1945 hasta 1953.
Elizabeth Virginia Wallace nació de David Willock Wallace (1860-1903) y su esposa Margaret Elizabeth Gates (1862-1952) en Independence, Missouri y era conocida por Bessie durante su infancia. Era la mayor de cuatro hijos, tres hermanos: Frank Gates Wallace (1887-1960), George Porterfield Wallace (1892-1963) y David Frederick Wallace (1900-1957).
Harry Truman, cuya familia se mudó al pueblo en 1890, siempre conservó la primera impresión que le causó ella cuando la vió en la escuela dominical: "Rizos de Oro" y "los ojos más hermosos". Un familiar dijo "no había otra muchacha en el mundo" para él. Fueron compañeros de escuela desde el primer grado hasta la enseñanza media superior.
Después de graduados de la enseñanza media superior ella estudió en la escuela preparatoria William Chrisman para señoritas en Kansas City, Missouri. En 1903 su padre se suicidó y ella retornó a Independence con su madre.
El estallido de la Primera Guerra Mundial alteró el lento y ceremonioso cortejo de Truman. El teniente Truman se declaró y estuvieron comprometidos antes de que el partiera para Francia en 1918. Se casaron el 28 de junio de 1919 y vivieron en la casa de la madre de ella. Hubo un par de niños que se malograron al nacer y varios abortos antes que naciera su hija Mary Margaret(1924-2008).
A medida que Harry se hacía más activo en política, Bess viajaba con él, compartiendo sus apariciones públicas tal y como se esperaba de una esposa de candidato. Su entrada al Senado en 1934 hizo que la familia se mudara a Washington, D.C. Fue elegido Vice Presidente en 1944. Al fallecimiento de Roosevelt el 12 de abril de 1945, Harry tomó el juramento presidencial. Bess conservó su compostura y se convirtió en la nueva Primera Dama.
Harry murió en 1972 y Bess continuó su vida silenciosamente, disfrutando de las visitas de Margaret y su marido Clifton Daniel que traían sus cuatro hijos. Bess accedió a ser la presidenta honoraria de la campaña de reelección del Senador Thomas Eagleton que era Demócrata por Missouri.
Bess murió el 18 de Octubre de 1982 de un fallo cardíaco congestivo. Se celebró un servicio funerario privado el día 21, después de lo cual fue enterrada al lado de su esposo en los jardines de la Biblioteca Harry S. Truman.
A sus 97 años ella sigue siendo la Primera Dama más longeva en la historia de los Estados Unidos. El único pariente cercano de un Presidente de los Estados Unidos que ha vivido más tiempo que Bess Truman fue la madre de John F. Kennedy, Rose Fitzgerald Kennedy que murió a los 104 años en 1995.

Elizabeth Virginia Wallace nació de David Willock Wallace (1860-1903) y su esposa Margaret Elizabeth Gates (1862-1952) en Independence, Missouri y era conocida por Bessie durante su infancia. Era la mayor de cuatro hijos, tres hermanos: Frank Gates Wallace (1887-1960), George Porterfield Wallace (1892-1963) y David Frederick Wallace (1900-1957).
Harry Truman, cuya familia se mudó al pueblo en 1890, siempre conservó la primera impresión que le causó ella cuando la vió en la escuela dominical: "Rizos de Oro" y "los ojos más hermosos". Un familiar dijo "no había otra muchacha en el mundo" para él. Fueron compañeros de escuela desde el primer grado hasta la enseñanza media superior.
Después de graduados de la enseñanza media superior ella estudió en la escuela preparatoria William Chrisman para señoritas en Kansas City, Missouri. En 1903 su padre se suicidó y ella retornó a Independence con su madre.
El estallido de la Primera Guerra Mundial alteró el lento y ceremonioso cortejo de Truman. El teniente Truman se declaró y estuvieron comprometidos antes de que el partiera para Francia en 1918. Se casaron el 28 de junio de 1919 y vivieron en la casa de la madre de ella. Hubo un par de niños que se malograron al nacer y varios abortos antes que naciera su hija Mary Margaret(1924-2008).
A medida que Harry se hacía más activo en política, Bess viajaba con él, compartiendo sus apariciones públicas tal y como se esperaba de una esposa de candidato. Su entrada al Senado en 1934 hizo que la familia se mudara a Washington, D.C. Fue elegido Vice Presidente en 1944. Al fallecimiento de Roosevelt el 12 de abril de 1945, Harry tomó el juramento presidencial. Bess conservó su compostura y se convirtió en la nueva Primera Dama.
Harry murió en 1972 y Bess continuó su vida silenciosamente, disfrutando de las visitas de Margaret y su marido Clifton Daniel que traían sus cuatro hijos. Bess accedió a ser la presidenta honoraria de la campaña de reelección del Senador Thomas Eagleton que era Demócrata por Missouri.
Bess murió el 18 de Octubre de 1982 de un fallo cardíaco congestivo. Se celebró un servicio funerario privado el día 21, después de lo cual fue enterrada al lado de su esposo en los jardines de la Biblioteca Harry S. Truman.
A sus 97 años ella sigue siendo la Primera Dama más longeva en la historia de los Estados Unidos. El único pariente cercano de un Presidente de los Estados Unidos que ha vivido más tiempo que Bess Truman fue la madre de John F. Kennedy, Rose Fitzgerald Kennedy que murió a los 104 años en 1995.

The spotlight did not appeal to Bess Truman. "She would return home to Independence as often as possible, leaving the President feeling very alone, often desolate," says historian David McCullough. "It's hard for some people to understand what she was like, and why the President was so devoted to her."

Harry Truman, cuya familia se mudó al pueblo en 1890, siempre conservó la primera impresión que le causó ella cuando la vió en la escuela dominical: "Rizos de Oro" y "los ojos más hermosos". Un familiar dijo "no había otra muchacha en el mundo" para él. Fueron compañeros de escuela desde el primer grado hasta la enseñanza media superior.
Después de graduados de la enseñanza media superior ella estudió en la escuela preparatoria William Chrisman para señoritas en Kansas City, Missouri. En 1903 su padre se suicidó y ella retornó a Independence con su madre.
El estallido de la Primera Guerra Mundial alteró el lento y ceremonioso cortejo de Truman. El teniente Truman se declaró y estuvieron comprometidos antes de que el partiera para Francia en 1918. Se casaron el 28 de junio de 1919 y vivieron en la casa de la madre de ella. Hubo un par de niños que se malograron al nacer y varios abortos antes que naciera su hija Mary Margaret(1924-2008).
A medida que Harry se hacía más activo en política, Bess viajaba con él, compartiendo sus apariciones públicas tal y como se esperaba de una esposa de candidato.

Bess murió el 18 de Octubre de 1982 de un fallo cardíaco congestivo. Se celebró un servicio funerario privado el día 21, después de lo cual fue enterrada al lado de su esposo en los jardines de la Biblioteca Harry S. Truman.

The Gerald R. Ford Presidential Foundation hosted First Family Representatives at yet another exclusive event to an overflow audience at the Gerald R. Ford Presidential Museum on April 26, 2012 in Grand Rapids, Michigan. Descendants of former First Ladies spoke on the enduring legacies, family stories and fondness that each carries for these unique icons of history. First Family Representatives included Margaret Hoover (great-granddaughter of Lou Hoover), Clifton Daniel (grandson of Bess Truman) and Betty Ford (daughter of Betty Ford).
Rick Albin, Political Report for WOOD-TV, moderated the panel as they touched on the First Ladies more so than just their public positions, but as "mother, grandmother and great-grandmother". Each of these women represented vastly different times and enormously important parts of our American history and the Foundation was honored to host this special event.
Margaret Claire Hoover is the great-granddaughter of Lou Hoover, wife of Herbert Hoover, the 31st President of the United States. Lou Hoover was the First Lady during Great Depression, which at the time was our nation's worst economic depression since the Civil War. Margaret touched on how Lou was a pioneer who broke the model of First Lades that had come before. Lou was the 1st First Lady to catalog the inventory of The White House furniture, paintings and household items. Lou was the 1st woman in the U.S. to graduate with a degree in geology, having graduated from the 3rd class from Stanford. She was the 1st First Lady to invite an African American women to tea, which caused such a scandal that it was called the De Priest Incident. Jessie De Priest was the wife of Oscar De Priest show as recently elected to U.S. Congress from Chicago and it was tradition to invite the wife of the Congressmen for tea. They knew it would be scandal but they moved to have her for tea and would invite her husband the next day for tea as well.
Clifton Truman Daniel is the grandson of Bess Truman, wife of Harry Truman, the 33rd President of the Untied States. Bess Truman was the FIrst Lady during and just following World War II. Clifton touched on how Bess was vastly different other First Ladies, especially Eleanor Roosevelt who had preceded her. The 1st act as First lady, was to cancel Eleanor's weekly press conference, she rarely spoke with the press and believed that her role was to be behind the scenes to support her husband. Bess is the longest lived First Lady, having died at 97 years old. Her father's suicide when she was 18 shaped how she would interact with people and later on the press for the rest of her life. While The White House was under construction, the Family lived in the Blair House.
Suzanne Ford Bales is the daughter of Betty Ford, wife of Gerald R. Ford, the 38th President of the United States. Betty Ford was the First Lady just after Richard Nixon's resignation due to the Watergate Scandal, end of the Vietnam War, American cultural changes and economic crisis. Suzanne touched on how Betty Grand Rapids molded her character, and how Betty was a cross between both Lou and Bess. She could be an activists when she wanted to be and she would want her private time away from the public image. Betty had accepted her breast cancer and was determined to work to change women's health care, as she rose awareness for the condition and rose to the occasion to help women everywhere.

AIRimages is a London-based art collective founded in 2009, by Bettina John (Berlin), Jaime Leme (São Paulo) and Sebastien Freuler (Geneva). Their work playfully combines different approaches to the construction of images through the synthesis of different artistic forms. Their projects bring together photography, video and interactive media and put these in contact with fashion and performance to explore the possibilities of the image, beyond traditional understandings of aesthetic production. In often, an impromptu and unexpected situation for the participant, AIRimages challenges conventional image-making modes in order to understand image communication and discover new ways of expression. In doing so, the artists deconstruct and rearrange preconceived aesthetic values, analyzing different ways of producing an image, a piece of art. The search into this process of visual creation is key to their work. In this process-led activity they try to get closer to the grain of photography and show the world beyond the frame. Their photographs show not only the final result of a photo-shoot session but also the interaction between participants or models and the photographer, an event that happened beyond the intention laid-out beforehand, a real, unplanned happening. In that sense, the interest is not necessarily in the photograph, but in what is happening beyond the frame during the process of taking the picture.

A reader from Kansas sent me Bess Truman's recipe for frozen lemon pie. It was in one of his mom's cookbooks. Bess thought the pie was a "perfect dessert for a bridge luncheon." So I made it.

ABOUT SPEAKER
Ms. Setsuko Thurlow:
As a 13-year old schoolgirl, Setsuko Thurlow found herself in close proximity to the hypocenter of the atomic blast that rocked Hiroshima. A survivor of one of the most pivotal events in modern history, she shares her experiences in order to sensitize us to the consequences of armed conflict on civilian populations and to promote lasting peace. She joined forces with the mayors of Toronto, Hiroshima, and Nagasaki to establish the Peace Garden in Toronto. Over the years, she has served with a number of organizations, including Voices of Women, the Canadian Council of Churches and the Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament, à Canadian Pugwash Group and Toronto Hiroshima Day Coalition, continuing her journey from victim to activist. On October 26, 2007, she received the Order of Canada Citation in Toronto, Ontario.
Mr. Yasuaki YAMASHITA:
When the A-Bomb fell on Nagasaki, August 9, 1945, Yasuaki Yamashita was 6 years old. An artist and ceramicist, he moved to Mexico in 1968, where he has accepted many invitations to speak about his A-Bomb experience. These have included schools, universities, cultural centers, a committee of the Mexican Senate, and the San Diego Museum of Photographic Arts. In 2010 he gave his testimony at a memorial ceremony organized by the Mexico City Government on the occasion of the 65th Anniversary of the Hiroshima and Nagasaki Atomic Bombs. He feels that it is important to keep alive the memory of the suffering, devastation, and death that nuclear weapons can cause in the hope that no one will ever use them again.
Mr. Clifton Truman Daniel:
Clifton Truman Daniel is the oldest grandson of 33rd US President Harry S. Truman and the honorary chairman of the Truman Library Institute in Independence, MO. A former journalist and public relations executive, Mr. Daniel is the author of two books on his grandparents, Growing Up With Grandfather: Memories of Harry S. Truman (Birch Lane Press, 1995) and Dear Harry, Love Bess: Bess Truman's Letters to Harry Truman, 1919-1943 (Truman State University Press, 2011).

Sworn into his second term as President just months before, President Grover Cleveland disappeared from public view for five days. Cleveland had been diagnosed with the dread disease, cancer. In the midst of the Panic of 1893, the President insisted on total secrecy in order to insure the Country's financial stability. A team of top physicians and surgeons was assembled, boarded the Oneida, a friend's yacht, and headed toward open water to perform the surgery to remove the cancer. The story was picked up by well-respected journalist, E.J. Edwards. What followed was a successful campaign by Cleveland's supporters to deny and discredit Edwards' story..
Matthew Algeo is an award-winning author who enjoys writing about unusual and interesting events in American history. Algeo has reported from four continents, and his stories have appeared on some of the most popular public radio programs in the United States. His previous book, Harry Truman's Excellent Adventure, tells the story of a road trip that Harry and Bess Truman took by themselves shortly after leaving the White House. It was named one of the best books of 2009 by The Washington Post. Algeo lives in Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia.

Bess Truman
The spotlight did not appeal to Bess Truman. "She would return home to Independence as often as possible, leaving the President feeling very alone, often desolate," says historian David McCullough. "It's hard for some people to understand what she was like, and why the President was so devoted to her."

Though she steadfastly fulfilled the social obligations of her position, she did only what she thought was necessary. When the White House was rebuilt during Truman's second term, the family lived in Blair House and kept their social life to a minimum.

Bess Truman
The spotlight did not appeal to Bess Truman. "She would return home to Independence as often as possible, leaving the President feeling very alone, often desolate," says historian David McCullough. "It's hard for some people to understand what she was like, and why the President was so devoted to her."

First Family Representatives included Margaret Hoover (great-granddaughter of Lou Hoover), Clifton Daniel (grandson of Bess Truman) and Betty Ford (daughter of Betty Ford). Rick Albin, Political Report for WOOD-TV, moderated the panel as they touched on the First Ladies more so than just their public positions, but as "mother, grandmother and great-grandmother".

AIRimages is a London-based art collective founded in 2009, by Bettina John (Berlin), Jaime Leme (São Paulo) and Sebastien Freuler (Geneva). Their work playfully combines different approaches to the construction of images through the synthesis of different artistic forms. Their projects bring together photography, video and interactive media and put these in contact with fashion and performance to explore the possibilities of the image, beyond traditional understandings of aesthetic production. In often, an impromptu and unexpected situation for the participant, AIRimages challenges conventional image-making modes in order to understand image communication and discover new ways of expression. In doing so, the artists deconstruct and rearrange preconceived aesthetic values, analyzing differ...

The President is a Sick Man: President Cleveland's Secret Surgery by Matthew Algeo
Sworn into his second term as President just months before, President Grover Cleveland disappeared from public view for five days. Cleveland had been diagnosed with the dread disease, cancer. In the midst of the Panic of 1893, the President insisted on total secrecy in order to insure the Country's financial stability. A team of top physicians and surgeons was assembled, boarded the Oneida, a friend's yacht, and headed toward open water to perform the surgery to remove the cancer. The story was picked up by well-respected journalist, E.J. Edwards. What followed was a successful campaign by Cleveland's supporters to deny and discredit Edwards' story.. Matthew Algeo is an award-winning author who enjoys writing about unusual and interesting events in American history. Algeo has reported fro...

Miss Truman visita La Habana, acompañada de su hija. (1948)
Bess found the White House's lack of privacy distasteful. As her husband put it later, she was "not especially interested" in the "formalities and pomp or the artificiality which, as we had learned..., inevitably surround the family of the President Harry Truman." Though she steadfastly fulfilled the social obligations of her position, she did only what she thought was necessary.

In most years of her husband's presidency Mrs. Truman did not live in Washington other than during the social season when her presence was expected.[citation needed]
The contrast with Bess's activist predecessor Eleanor Roosevelt was considerable. Unlike her, Bess held only one press conference after many requests from the mostly female press corps assigned to her. The press conference consisted of written questions in advance and the written replies were mostly monosyllabic along with many no comments. Bess's response to whether she wanted her daughter Margaret to become President was "most definitely not." Her reply to what she wanted to do after her husband left office was "return to Independence" although she had briefly entertained the thought of living in Washington after 1953
Elizabeth Virginia Wallace Truman (13 de febrero de 1885 -- 18 de octubre de 1982), comúnmente conocida por Bess Truman, fue la esposa de Harry S. Truman y Primera Dama de los Estados Unidos desde 1945 hasta 1953.
Elizabeth Virginia Wallace nació de David Willock Wallace (1860-1903) y su esposa Margaret Elizabeth Gates (1862-1952) en Independence, Missouri y era conocida por Bessie durante su infancia. Era la mayor de cuatro hijos, tres hermanos: Frank Gates Wallace (1887-1960), George Porterfield Wallace (1892-1963) y David Frederick Wallace (1900-1957).
Harry Truman, cuya familia se mudó al pueblo en 1890, siempre conservó la primera impresión que le causó ella cuando la vió en la escuela dominical: "Rizos de Oro" y "los ojos más hermosos". Un familiar dijo "no había otra muchacha en el mundo" para él. Fueron compañeros de escuela desde el primer grado hasta la enseñanza media superior.
Después de graduados de la enseñanza media superior ella estudió en la escuela preparatoria William Chrisman para señoritas en Kansas City, Missouri. En 1903 su padre se suicidó y ella retornó a Independence con su madre.
El estallido de la Primera Guerra Mundial alteró el lento y ceremonioso cortejo de Truman. El teniente Truman se declaró y estuvieron comprometidos antes de que el partiera para Francia en 1918. Se casaron el 28 de junio de 1919 y vivieron en la casa de la madre de ella. Hubo un par de niños que se malograron al nacer y varios abortos antes que naciera su hija Mary Margaret(1924-2008).
A medida que Harry se hacía más activo en política, Bess viajaba con él, compartiendo sus apariciones públicas tal y como se esperaba de una esposa de candidato. Su entrada al Senado en 1934 hizo que la familia se mudara a Washington, D.C. Fue elegido Vice Presidente en 1944. Al fallecimiento de Roosevelt el 12 de abril de 1945, Harry tomó el juramento presidencial. Bess conservó su compostura y se convirtió en la nueva Primera Dama.
Harry murió en 1972 y Bess continuó su vida silenciosamente, disfrutando de las visitas de Margaret y su marido Clifton Daniel que traían sus cuatro hijos. Bess accedió a ser la presidenta honoraria de la campaña de reelección del Senador Thomas Eagleton que era Demócrata por Missouri.
Bess murió el 18 de Octubre de 1982 de un fallo cardíaco congestivo. Se celebró un servicio funerario privado el día 21, después de lo cual fue enterrada al lado de su esposo en los jardines de la Biblioteca Harry S. Truman.
A sus 97 años ella sigue siendo la Primera Dama más longeva en la historia de los Estados Unidos. El único pariente cercano de un Presidente de los Estados Unidos que ha vivido más tiempo que Bess Truman fue la madre de John F. Kennedy, Rose Fitzgerald Kennedy que murió a los 104 años en 1995.

Elizabeth Virginia Wallace nació de David Willock Wallace (1860-1903) y su esposa Margaret Elizabeth Gates (1862-1952) en Independence, Missouri y era conocida por Bessie durante su infancia. Era la mayor de cuatro hijos, tres hermanos: Frank Gates Wallace (1887-1960), George Porterfield Wallace (1892-1963) y David Frederick Wallace (1900-1957).
Harry Truman, cuya familia se mudó al pueblo en 1890, siempre conservó la primera impresión que le causó ella cuando la vió en la escuela dominical: "Rizos de Oro" y "los ojos más hermosos". Un familiar dijo "no había otra muchacha en el mundo" para él. Fueron compañeros de escuela desde el primer grado hasta la enseñanza media superior.
Después de graduados de la enseñanza media superior ella estudió en la escuela preparatoria William Chrisman para señoritas en Kansas City, Missouri. En 1903 su padre se suicidó y ella retornó a Independence con su madre.
El estallido de la Primera Guerra Mundial alteró el lento y ceremonioso cortejo de Truman. El teniente Truman se declaró y estuvieron comprometidos antes de que el partiera para Francia en 1918. Se casaron el 28 de junio de 1919 y vivieron en la casa de la madre de ella. Hubo un par de niños que se malograron al nacer y varios abortos antes que naciera su hija Mary Margaret(1924-2008).
A medida que Harry se hacía más activo en política, Bess viajaba con él, compartiendo sus apariciones públicas tal y como se esperaba de una esposa de candidato. Su entrada al Senado en 1934 hizo que la familia se mudara a Washington, D.C. Fue elegido Vice Presidente en 1944. Al fallecimiento de Roosevelt el 12 de abril de 1945, Harry tomó el juramento presidencial. Bess conservó su compostura y se convirtió en la nueva Primera Dama.
Harry murió en 1972 y Bess continuó su vida silenciosamente, disfrutando de las visitas de Margaret y su marido Clifton Daniel que traían sus cuatro hijos. Bess accedió a ser la presidenta honoraria de la campaña de reelección del Senador Thomas Eagleton que era Demócrata por Missouri.
Bess murió el 18 de Octubre de 1982 de un fallo cardíaco congestivo. Se celebró un servicio funerario privado el día 21, después de lo cual fue enterrada al lado de su esposo en los jardines de la Biblioteca Harry S. Truman.
A sus 97 años ella sigue siendo la Primera Dama más longeva en la historia de los Estados Unidos. El único pariente cercano de un Presidente de los Estados Unidos que ha vivido más tiempo que Bess Truman fue la madre de John F. Kennedy, Rose Fitzgerald Kennedy que murió a los 104 años en 1995.

The spotlight did not appeal to Bess Truman. "She would return home to Independence as often as possible, leaving the President feeling very alone, often desolate," says historian David McCullough. "It's hard for some people to understand what she was like, and why the President was so devoted to her."

Harry Truman, cuya familia se mudó al pueblo en 1890, siempre conservó la primera impresión que le causó ella cuando la vió en la escuela dominical: "Rizos de Oro" y "los ojos más hermosos". Un familiar dijo "no había otra muchacha en el mundo" para él. Fueron compañeros de escuela desde el primer grado hasta la enseñanza media superior.
Después de graduados de la enseñanza media superior ella estudió en la escuela preparatoria William Chrisman para señoritas en Kansas City, Missouri. En 1903 su padre se suicidó y ella retornó a Independence con su madre.
El estallido de la Primera Guerra Mundial alteró el lento y ceremonioso cortejo de Truman. El teniente Truman se declaró y estuvieron comprometidos antes de que el partiera para Francia en 1918. Se casaron el 28 de junio de 1919 y vivieron en la casa de la madre de ella. Hubo un par de niños que se malograron al nacer y varios abortos antes que naciera su hija Mary Margaret(1924-2008).
A medida que Harry se hacía más activo en política, Bess viajaba con él, compartiendo sus apariciones públicas tal y como se esperaba de una esposa de candidato.

Bess murió el 18 de Octubre de 1982 de un fallo cardíaco congestivo. Se celebró un servicio funerario privado el día 21, después de lo cual fue enterrada al lado de su esposo en los jardines de la Biblioteca Harry S. Truman.

The Gerald R. Ford Presidential Foundation hosted First Family Representatives at yet another exclusive event to an overflow audience at the Gerald R. Ford Presidential Museum on April 26, 2012 in Grand Rapids, Michigan. Descendants of former First Ladies spoke on the enduring legacies, family stories and fondness that each carries for these unique icons of history. First Family Representatives included Margaret Hoover (great-granddaughter of Lou Hoover), Clifton Daniel (grandson of Bess Truman) and Betty Ford (daughter of Betty Ford).
Rick Albin, Political Report for WOOD-TV, moderated the panel as they touched on the First Ladies more so than just their public positions, but as "mother, grandmother and great-grandmother". Each of these women represented vastly different times and enormously important parts of our American history and the Foundation was honored to host this special event.
Margaret Claire Hoover is the great-granddaughter of Lou Hoover, wife of Herbert Hoover, the 31st President of the United States. Lou Hoover was the First Lady during Great Depression, which at the time was our nation's worst economic depression since the Civil War. Margaret touched on how Lou was a pioneer who broke the model of First Lades that had come before. Lou was the 1st First Lady to catalog the inventory of The White House furniture, paintings and household items. Lou was the 1st woman in the U.S. to graduate with a degree in geology, having graduated from the 3rd class from Stanford. She was the 1st First Lady to invite an African American women to tea, which caused such a scandal that it was called the De Priest Incident. Jessie De Priest was the wife of Oscar De Priest show as recently elected to U.S. Congress from Chicago and it was tradition to invite the wife of the Congressmen for tea. They knew it would be scandal but they moved to have her for tea and would invite her husband the next day for tea as well.
Clifton Truman Daniel is the grandson of Bess Truman, wife of Harry Truman, the 33rd President of the Untied States. Bess Truman was the FIrst Lady during and just following World War II. Clifton touched on how Bess was vastly different other First Ladies, especially Eleanor Roosevelt who had preceded her. The 1st act as First lady, was to cancel Eleanor's weekly press conference, she rarely spoke with the press and believed that her role was to be behind the scenes to support her husband. Bess is the longest lived First Lady, having died at 97 years old. Her father's suicide when she was 18 shaped how she would interact with people and later on the press for the rest of her life. While The White House was under construction, the Family lived in the Blair House.
Suzanne Ford Bales is the daughter of Betty Ford, wife of Gerald R. Ford, the 38th President of the United States. Betty Ford was the First Lady just after Richard Nixon's resignation due to the Watergate Scandal, end of the Vietnam War, American cultural changes and economic crisis. Suzanne touched on how Betty Grand Rapids molded her character, and how Betty was a cross between both Lou and Bess. She could be an activists when she wanted to be and she would want her private time away from the public image. Betty had accepted her breast cancer and was determined to work to change women's health care, as she rose awareness for the condition and rose to the occasion to help women everywhere.

AIRimages is a London-based art collective founded in 2009, by Bettina John (Berlin), Jaime Leme (São Paulo) and Sebastien Freuler (Geneva). Their work playfully combines different approaches to the construction of images through the synthesis of different artistic forms. Their projects bring together photography, video and interactive media and put these in contact with fashion and performance to explore the possibilities of the image, beyond traditional understandings of aesthetic production. In often, an impromptu and unexpected situation for the participant, AIRimages challenges conventional image-making modes in order to understand image communication and discover new ways of expression. In doing so, the artists deconstruct and rearrange preconceived aesthetic values, analyzing different ways of producing an image, a piece of art. The search into this process of visual creation is key to their work. In this process-led activity they try to get closer to the grain of photography and show the world beyond the frame. Their photographs show not only the final result of a photo-shoot session but also the interaction between participants or models and the photographer, an event that happened beyond the intention laid-out beforehand, a real, unplanned happening. In that sense, the interest is not necessarily in the photograph, but in what is happening beyond the frame during the process of taking the picture.

ABOUT SPEAKER
Ms. Setsuko Thurlow:
As a 13-year old schoolgirl, Setsuko Thurlow found herself in close proximity to the hypocenter of the atomic blast that rocked Hiroshima. A survivor of one of the most pivotal events in modern history, she shares her experiences in order to sensitize us to the consequences of armed conflict on civilian populations and to promote lasting peace. She joined forces with the mayors of Toronto, Hiroshima, and Nagasaki to establish the Peace Garden in Toronto. Over the years, she has served with a number of organizations, including Voices of Women, the Canadian Council of Churches and the Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament, à Canadian Pugwash Group and Toronto Hiroshima Day Coalition, continuing her journey from victim to activist. On October 26, 2007, she received the Order of Canada Citation in Toronto, Ontario.
Mr. Yasuaki YAMASHITA:
When the A-Bomb fell on Nagasaki, August 9, 1945, Yasuaki Yamashita was 6 years old. An artist and ceramicist, he moved to Mexico in 1968, where he has accepted many invitations to speak about his A-Bomb experience. These have included schools, universities, cultural centers, a committee of the Mexican Senate, and the San Diego Museum of Photographic Arts. In 2010 he gave his testimony at a memorial ceremony organized by the Mexico City Government on the occasion of the 65th Anniversary of the Hiroshima and Nagasaki Atomic Bombs. He feels that it is important to keep alive the memory of the suffering, devastation, and death that nuclear weapons can cause in the hope that no one will ever use them again.
Mr. Clifton Truman Daniel:
Clifton Truman Daniel is the oldest grandson of 33rd US President Harry S. Truman and the honorary chairman of the Truman Library Institute in Independence, MO.

Sworn into his second term as President just months before, President Grover Cleveland disappeared from public view for five days. Cleveland had been diagnosed with the dread disease, cancer. In the midst of the Panic of 1893, the President insisted on total secrecy in order to insure the Country's financial stability. A team of top physicians and surgeons was assembled, boarded the Oneida, a friend's yacht, and headed toward open water to perform the surgery to remove the cancer. The story was picked up by well-respected journalist, E.J. Edwards. What followed was a successful campaign by Cleveland's supporters to deny and discredit Edwards' story..
Matthew Algeo is an award-winning author who enjoys writing about unusual and interesting events in American history. Algeo has reported from four continents, and his stories have appeared on some of the most popular public radio programs in the United States. His previous book, Harry Truman's Excellent Adventure, tells the story of a road trip that Harry and Bess Truman took by themselves shortly after leaving the White House. It was named one of the best books of 2009 by The Washington Post. Algeo lives in Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia.

Michelle Obama Previews the UK State Dinner (2012)
http://thefilmarchive.org/ March 14, 2012 In the United States, a state dinner is a formal dinner, more often black tie in recent years rather than white tie, which is held in honor of a foreign head of state, such as a king, queen, president, or any head of government. A state dinner is hosted by the President of the United States and held in the State Dining Room at the White House in Washington D.C. Other formal dinners for important people of other nations, such as a prince or princess, are called official dinners, the difference being that the federal government does not pay for them. State and official dinners are dictated by strict protocol in order to ensure that no diplomatic gaffes occur. The Chief of Protocol of the United States, who is an official within the United States D...

Aida Donald, Autor, "Citizen Soldier"
This week on Q&A;, our guest is Aida Donald, author of "Citizen Soldier: A Life of Harry S. Truman." The book traces Harry Truman's early life and entry into politics to the end of his presidency. Donald discusses how the 33rd President's early career was characterized by his efforts to remain honest despite the corruption present in local Missouri politics. She cites his writings known as the Pickwick Papers, named for the hotel Truman frequented in Kansas City. She also talks about Harry's courtship of Bess Wallace, whom he would later marry, and the lifelong impact she felt as a result of her own father's suicide. Mrs. Donald recounts Truman's election to the United States Senate and his nomination to be Franklin Roosevelt's running mate in the 1944 presidential election.

From the box: "Narrated by Louis Nizer, well-known lawyer and author who witnessed the 'Truman years.'
This is the story of the "Truman years" and the critical "days of decision." Harry S. Truman was born on May 8, 1884, and grew up in Independence, Missouri. After high school, Truman held various jobs, but returned to help his father run the family farm. When America entered World War I, Truman was promoted to Captain, and his unit saw action in France. In 1919, Truman married Bess Wallace. They had only one child, Mary Margaret. Truman entered politics in 1922 as an elected judge. He remained in local politics until 1934, when he was elected to the United States Senate. In July 1944, President Franklin D. Roosevelt selected him as his Vice President. After FDR's unexpected death on April 12, 1945, Truman became the 33rd President of the U.S. He immediately oversaw the end of World War II in Europe. He participated in the conference at Potsdam, Germany. To save an estimated 300,000 American lives in the Pacific War, Truman approved the dropping of two atomic bombs on Japan, August 6 and 9, 1945. Japan surrendered on August 14. Following the war, the Soviet Union pursued world expansion. Truman's foreign policy was designed to prevent growing Soviet influence. The "Truman Doctrine," NATO, and the Marshall Plan were Truman's barrier to Soviet world domination. In 1948, Truman won re-election. His famous "whistle stop" tour became political folklore. When North Korea invaded South Korea in June, 1950, Truman responded by waging undeclared war. Called a "police action," 50,000 American casualties were suffered in just a few years. Truman selected General Douglas A. MacArthur to command the U.N. Security force. When Truman thought MacArthur had gone too far, jeopardizing world peace, he relieved the General of his command. Domestically the Truman administration went beyond the New Deal in the area of civil right. He desegregated the Armed Forces and forbade racial discrimination in federal employment. He also established a civil rights committee and encouraged fighting against segregation. Truman left the presidency and returned to Independence in 1953. Harry S. Truman died on December 26, 1972."

March 14, 2012
In the United States, a state dinner is a formal dinner, more often black tie in recent years rather than white tie, which is held in honor of a foreign head of state, such as a king, queen, president, or any head of government. A state dinner is hosted by the President of the United States and held in the State Dining Room at the White House in Washington D.C. Other formal dinners for important people of other nations, such as a prince or princess, are called official dinners, the difference being that the federal government does not pay for them.
State and official dinners are dictated by strict protocol in order to ensure that no diplomatic gaffes occur. The Chief of Protocol of the United States, who is an official within the United States Department of State, the White House Chief Usher, who is head of the household staff at the White House, as well as the White House Social Secretary all oversee the planning of state and official dinners from beginning to end. The Graphics and Calligraphy Office located in the East Wing of the White House also bears numerous responsibilities. The White House Chief Calligrapher creates place cards with the names of the guests who are designated seat assignments around the tables in the State Dining Room. The Chief Calligrapher also designs and writes formal invitations that are mailed to the postal addresses of the guests. State dinners require close coordination between the White House Executive Chef and the White House Executive Pastry Chef who plan and prepare a four or five-course meal, as well as the White House Chief Floral Designer who arranges flowers and decorations on the candle-lit tables.
As is customary for all incoming state visits by foreign heads of state, a state dinner follows a State Arrival Ceremony which occurs on the South Lawn earlier in the day. In addition, state dinners held in recent years are also given media coverage by the public affairs TV channel, C-SPAN.
The restoration of the White House by the architectural firm McKim, Mead, and White in 1902 created a more proper setting for official entertainment to occur. When the president's office moved to the newly constructed West Wing, the Neoclassical remodeling of the Executive Residence's state rooms gave Theodore Roosevelt a perfect venue reflecting the United States' growing power and influence around the world. While the White House underwent a complete interior reconstruction from 1948 to 1952, Harry S. Truman and Bess Truman lived at Blair House and state dinners were held in local hotels in the nation's capital. Long banquet tables were always used in the State Dining Room prior to the administration of John F. Kennedy. However, these were permanently disbanded by Jacqueline Kennedy and replaced with round tables which could seat a far greater number of guests, approximately 120 to 140, in such a tight and confined space. To this day, presidents and first ladies continue to add their own personal touches and flair of how they wish to entertain foreign guests of state at the White House, having full access to the Vermeil "collection" of gilted candelabras and flatware, the President's House crystal pattern, as well as the priceless collection of White House china which dates from the James Monroe administration to the George W. Bush administration, for use at a state dinner.

ABOUT SPEAKER
Ms. Setsuko Thurlow:
As a 13-year old schoolgirl, Setsuko Thurlow found herself in close proximity to the hypocenter of the atomic blast that rocked Hiroshima. A survivor of one of the most pivotal events in modern history, she shares her experiences in order to sensitize us to the consequences of armed conflict on civilian populations and to promote lasting peace. She joined forces with the mayors of Toronto, Hiroshima, and Nagasaki to establish the Peace Garden in Toronto. Over the years, she has served with a number of organizations, including Voices of Women, the Canadian Council of Churches and the Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament, à Canadian Pugwash Group and Toronto Hiroshima Day Coalition, continuing her journey from victim to activist. On October 26, 2007, she received the Order of Canada Citation in Toronto, Ontario.
Mr. Yasuaki YAMASHITA:
When the A-Bomb fell on Nagasaki, August 9, 1945, Yasuaki Yamashita was 6 years old. An artist and ceramicist, he moved to Mexico in 1968, where he has accepted many invitations to speak about his A-Bomb experience. These have included schools, universities, cultural centers, a committee of the Mexican Senate, and the San Diego Museum of Photographic Arts. In 2010 he gave his testimony at a memorial ceremony organized by the Mexico City Government on the occasion of the 65th Anniversary of the Hiroshima and Nagasaki Atomic Bombs. He feels that it is important to keep alive the memory of the suffering, devastation, and death that nuclear weapons can cause in the hope that no one will ever use them again.
Mr. Clifton Truman Daniel:
Clifton Truman Daniel is the oldest grandson of 33rd US President Harry S. Truman and the honorary chairman of the Truman Library Institute in Independence, MO. A former journalist and public relations executive, Mr. Daniel is the author of two books on his grandparents, Growing Up With Grandfather: Memories of Harry S. Truman (Birch Lane Press, 1995) and Dear Harry, Love Bess: Bess Truman's Letters to Harry Truman, 1919-1943 (Truman State University Press, 2011). He is currently at work on a book on the survivors of Hiroshima and Nagasaki.

This week on Q&A;, our guest is Aida Donald, author of "Citizen Soldier: A Life of Harry S. Truman." The book traces Harry Truman's early life and entry into politics to the end of his presidency. Donald discusses how the 33rd President's early career was characterized by his efforts to remain honest despite the corruption present in local Missouri politics. She cites his writings known as the Pickwick Papers, named for the hotel Truman frequented in Kansas City. She also talks about Harry's courtship of Bess Wallace, whom he would later marry, and the lifelong impact she felt as a result of her own father's suicide. Mrs. Donald recounts Truman's election to the United States Senate and his nomination to be Franklin Roosevelt's running mate in the 1944 presidential election.
