"A good leader inspires people to have confidence in the leader. A great leader inspires people to have confidence in themselves." - Eleanor Roosevelt~~~Eleanor Roosevelt is the most enduringly famous first lady in American history, and for good reason. She transformed what a first lady can be, criss-crossing the country to meet and listen to Americans in need and serve as their advocate in Washington D.C. But the woman we remember her as is not the woman she always was. David Michaelis,  author of New York Times bestseller Eleanor discusses how Eleanor rose from a "Dickensian childhood" to become the champion of millions.Support the show

[REBROADCAST FROM November 18, 2020] In the latest installment of our “Full Bio” series, we take an in-depth look into the life of America's longest-serving First Lady, Eleanor Roosevelt, with David Michaelis, who spent 11 years working on his new biography, Eleanor. Today, we pick up the story with FDR's polio diagnosis, and the family's road to the White House. Eleanor was reluctant to assume a traditional role of First Lady, and spent the Depression years carving out a new model for the position, as she traveled around the country to hear from Americans directly. We also learn about her greatest love affair, with AP reporter Lorena Hickock.

Her time as a public servant and diplomat was far from over after her husband's death in 1945. Her career as a US delegate at the United Nations kept Eleanor in the spotlight, while a new love for her personal doctor occupied Eleanor's final years. We also take this time to examine the legacy that Eleanor left behind following her death in 1962.

Eleanor Roosevelt died nearly sixty years ago, but she remains a monumental figure in modern American history – a woman who devoted her life to the betterment of others as a diplomat, activist, humanitarian, and the longest-serving First Lady. David Michaelis’ newest book Eleanor offers readers the first-ever single-volume biography of all six decades of Eleanor Roosevelt’s extraordinary life. From orphaned child to wife of the country’s longest-serving president and everything that followed, Michaelis covers all of the important moments of Eleanor’s life while digging deeper to reveal the person she was outside of her remarkable accomplishments. Called “a sympathetic view of a complicated woman who changed and grew with every challenge” by the Wall Street Journal, Eleanor paints a picture of an American ideal. David Michaelis has authored six books, including national bestsellers “N.C. Wyeth” (1999 Ambassador Book Award for Biography winner) and “Schulz and Peanuts.” His work has also been featured in Condé Nast Traveler and the Best American Essays anthology. Michaelis is an alumnus of Princeton University. Moderator Talmage Boston is a Dallas attorney and author of four books of history. . .

Talmage Boston conducts a live cross-examination style interview of David Michaelis, author of the new biography of unforgettable first lady Eleanor Roosevelt, titled "Eleanor".

February 14, 2021 – A special President’s Day edition of the Retail Politics Podcast with Gerry Shields celebrated the works of the nation’s 45 First Ladies, dubbing Eleanor Roosevelt, wife of President Franklin D. Roosevelt, as the gold standard. “She was an amazing lady because she was like the First Lady to be a dual president,” said host Gerry Shields. “If anybody was to say did we ever have a female president, she would probably come closest.” Shields recommended the new book, Eleanor by David Michaelis, yet stepped back in time to discuss First Ladies going all the way back to Dolley Madison, who served from 1809 to 1817 and was the first to invite both parties to the White House, an action that eventually resulted in the word: bipartisanship. # # #Listen to the Retail Politics Podcast with Gerry Shields can be heard at retailpoliticspodcast.com and on Apple and Spotify.

Eleanor Roosevelt was many things: an orphaned child in a prominent family, a stellar student, an ambitious social reformer, a savvy political spouse, a tireless humanitarian, and a syndicated columnist whose daily dispatches were followed by millions of readers. According to David Michaelis, author of the new biography Eleanor, the former first lady built a remarkable legacy by engaging with the public and pursuing her passions. “She truly was a far more evergreen person, in a way, even than her husband,” Michaelis says, “because she kept growing.”

Details, credits, errata: Hello! This week’s guest is the wonderful Emily VanDerWerff, critic at Vox alongside Alissa, the first TV editor of The AV Club, author with Friend of the Pod Zach Handlen of Monsters of the Week: The Complete Critical Companion to The X-Files, available at a number of fine booksellers, and host of her own mystery-comedy podcast, Arden. She is great!Our film for the week is the 1965 CBS holiday special A Charlie Brown Christmas, an important film for a lot of Christians and a perfect evocation of a remarkable artist’s seminal and work—a difficult task indeed when you consider what an ingenious minimalist its author, Charles M. Schulz, was. Emily wrote beautifully about A Charlie Brown Christmas and Christianity here. Sam rarely links his own writing but this time he’s going to make an exception for his essay on Schulz and Peanuts from 2015, when the not-very-good Peanuts Movie came out. A Charlie Brown Christmas is available to watch on Apple TV; Emily wrote about the frustrating decision to wall off shows originally produced for the public here. PBS briefly made the show available; Sam recommends, no kidding, the blu-ray, which comes with all kinds of great bells and whistles.Also of note, as Emily mentions, is Schulz and Peanuts by David Michaelis, available here and an excellent read, if not a comfortable one for Schulz’s admirers. He was a messed-up guy! As are many great artists. Our theme song is Louis Armstrong and His Hot 5’s Muskrat Ramble, made freely available by the Boston Public Library and audio engineering shop George Blood, LP through the Internet Archive.

We discuss every aspect of Eleanor's life, from her tumultuous upbringing, her complicated marriage to FDR, her transformation of the role of First Lady, and, in the later years of her life, her work in the newly formed United Nations. Ultimately, what David presents is a portrait of a woman whose ultimate strength was in her ability to learn, grow, evolve, and stand by her convictions.

His name summons up our earliest images of the beloved books we read as children. His illustrations for Scribner's Illustrated Classics (Treasure Island, Kidnapped, The Last of the Mohicans, The Yearling) are etched into the collective memory of generations of readers. He was hailed as the greatest American illustrator of his day. For forty-three years, starting in 1902, N.C. Wyeth painted landscapes, still lifes, portraits, and murals, as well as illustrations for a long shelf of world literature. Yet despite worldwide acclaim, he judged himself a failure, believing that illustration was of no importance. David Michaelis tells the story of Wyeth's family through four generations -- a saga that begins and ends with tragedy -- and brings to life the huge-spirited, deeply complicated man, and an America that was quickly vanishing.

Today's Guest: Nat Gertler, author, The Peanuts Collection: Treasures from the World's Most Beloved Comic Strip Order 'The Peanuts Collection' by Nat Gertler, available from Amazon.com by clicking the book cover above! When you’re done reading your favorite comic strip today, wouldn’t it be cool to have some lasting ephemera to put on your desk, in your school locker, in the kitchen or on your nightstand? Something that will remind you of the laughs you shared with a beloved cartoon character? Me? Today I’d like a plush Satchel stuffed dog from Get Fuzzy, or a replacement of my long-lost Opus doll from Bloom County. Or anything from Calvin and Hobbs or Pearls Before Swine. But when I was kid, long into my teen years and even at college, it was anything Snoopy. I had a poster in my room of Snoopy lying prone on his doghouse, staring at his empty food dish, waiting for the round-headed kid to fill ‘er up. I also had stacks of the paperback collections of daily Peanuts strips and a treasured hardbound volume as well, that I couldn’t wait to later pass on to my daughter when she was barely old enough to study the pictures and begin reading. NAT GERTLER audio excerpt: "My wife, when I married her, still had her Snoopy lunchbox, which my daughter now has."  Order 'The Complete Idiot's Guide to Creating a Graphic Novel' by Nat Gertler, available from Amazon.com by clicking on the book cover above! There’s a reason, years after cartoonist Charles Schulz’s death, that Peanuts remains a popular feature in hundreds, maybe thousands of newspapers around the world. It’s funny, it’s sweet and, at times, it’s brilliant. This is the third show I’ve done dedicated largely to Schulz. The first was an interview with his controversial biographer, David Michaelis; the second was with Schulz’ son, Monte, a novelist and author of This Side of Jordan. Today, I’m pleased to welcome Nat Gertler, a collector of Peanuts memorabilia who worked with the Schulz family and the Charles M. Schulz Museum and Research Center to write and compile a fabulous Charlie Brown coffee table keepsake, The Peanuts Collection: Treasures from the World’s Most Beloved Comic Strip. It’s a fabulous assemblage of images and actual reprints of all kinds of cool stuff from 60 years of the world’s favorite newspaper strip. (Sorry, Tintin.) Besides being the man behind a website featuring a collectors’ guide to Peanuts books titled, AAUGH.com, Gertler is also the co-author of The Complete Idiot’s Guide to Creating a Graphic Novel.

Today's Guest: David Michaelis, author, Schulz and Peanuts Schulz and Peanuts: A Biography by David Michaelis. Order your copy today by clicking on the book cover above! Peanuts Treasury was the first hardcover book I remember getting as a kid, somewhere around 1968, 1969. I spent hours reading and re-reading it, losing myself in the comic misadventures of Charlie Brown and Snoopy, wishing I could be like Charles Schulz, the strip’s writer and artist. My first dog, acquired around that same time, was not coincidentally a beagle, like Snoopy, whom we named Peppy, and I loved that crazy dog. I was so fond of Peanuts Treasury that it’s one of the few prized possessions from my misspent youth that followed me through college, half a dozen adult relocations, and is now on my son’s bookshelf. It’s hard to find anyone who has anything bad to say about “Peanuts” or Schulz. The strip’s creator lived and thrived in the pre-Internet age where the world didn’t demand every detail of a celebrity’s life be preserved and shared. For the most part, we knew only his good works and the enduring cartoon series based on them. In his new book, Schulz and Peanuts, biographer David Michaelis introduces readers to the real cartoonist behind the daily strip. Michaelis’ previous biographical work includes a history of painter N. C. Wyeth. (Incidentally, the Schulz family – led by Sparky’s widow, Jean – has aggressively come out against the book they once authorized and with which they cooperated fully.)   David Michaelis, author, Schulz and Peanuts: A Biography David Michaelis Facebook • Twitter • LinkedIn • Goodreads Order Will Eisner: A Spirited Life (2nd Edition) by Bob Andelman, available from Amazon.com by clicking on the book cover above!   The Party Authority in New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Delaware and Maryland!

Our Thursday Throwback is the early years of Peanuts, here represented by the IDW Schulz Peanuts Artist's Edition. But the discussion from @TwoPlai ranges from the Schulz Museum in Santa Rosa, California, to the Fantagraphics Complete Peanuts collection, and from David Michaelis's 2007 biography to the response from Monte Schulz and others in the Comics Journal shortly thereafter. Mostly, @TwoPlai talks too long about one of his favorite subjects. That blockhead.

On this week’s Past Present podcast, Nicole Hemmer, Natalia Mehlman Petrzela, and Neil Young discuss the campus protests at Mizzou and Yale, Tinder and online dating, and the politics of immigration.    Here are some links and references mentioned during this week’s show: Protests at the University of Missouri, Yale, and other schools have erupted over issues regarding racism on college campuses today. At Mizzou, the university’s troubled history of racism has shaped the most recent events. Niki mentioned that classic works like Alan Bloom’s The Closing of the American Mind and Dinesh D’Souza’s Illiberal Education made the idea of “political correctness” the prevailing conservative interpretation of university politics and has shaped the current conversation regarding free speech on campus.The dating app Tinder has updated its features to allow users to add job and education information to their profiles. Dating in the internet age has occasioned all sorts of worries about how technology is changing modern romance, but Natalia pointed out there are many continuities with courtship practices across the twentieth century. Natalia noted the works of scholars like Paula Fass and Mary McComb show some of the same practices we think of as created by the internet, such as rating your date, go back to the 1920s.Immigration has emerged as one of the biggest issues in the 2016 presidential race. Niki has recently written about how immigration has become the most important issue in the Republican race for the nomination, and she cited Mae Ngai’s history of illegal aliens, Impossible Subjects, as an important work that has shaped her thinking regarding the history of immigration in America. In our regular closing feature, What’s Making History: Natalia recommended Aziz Ansari’s new Netflix show, Master of None, in part for how it portrays race in America today.Neil suggested two readings on Charles Schulz and his famous comic strip to accompany the new Peanuts movie. Neil recommended David Michaelis’ 2007 biography Schulz and Peanuts and Sarah Boxer’s recent Atlantic article, “The Exemplary Narcissism of Snoopy.”Niki discussed Jill Lepore’s New Yorker article on the history of polling.
