PROGRAM:
Eleanor Roosevelt
A living portrayal by Leslie Goddard
Eleanor Roosevelt comes alive in this memorable portrayal by nationally recognized actress and scholar Leslie Goddard. Drawn from Eleanor’s own letters, diaries and newspaper writings, this engaging performance captures the warm, honest American stateswoman as she speaks from her cottage in New York in 1945 while considering whether to accept a nomination to the United Nations. As she ponders her choice, she reflects on her life experiences, growing from a shy, insecure orphan into a confident, driven woman who championed progressive causes and humanitarianism.
