Marc Peyser is a writer and former editor at both Newsweek and Budget Travel. His work has appeared in the New York Times, Life, Vogue, Time Out New York, Condé Nast Traveler, and the Best Business Writing, 2003. He is currently the deputy editor of All You magazine.
Timothy Dwyer was raised on Long Island’s Eaton’s Neck, swimming distance from Theodore Roosevelt’s homestead at Sagamore Hill. He studied history and politics at Georgetown University’s School of Foreign Service and at the College of Europe in Bruges, Belgium. His work has appeared in Time and TheAtlantic.com. He is the chief executive officer of the School Choice Group, an education advisory company.
Theodore and family in the spring of 1895, when Alice (standing dead center, naturally) was eleven. (Roosevelt R500.P69a-017, Houghton Library, Harvard University)
Elliott with (from left) Gracie Hall, Eleanor, and Elliott Jr. in 1892, on one of the rare occasions when he was permitted to see his children. It is the last known picture taken of them together. (Franklin D. Roosevelt Presidential Library)
Franklin and Eleanor at Hyde Park in 1906, the year after they were married. (Franklin D. Roosevelt Presidential Library)
Eleanor in her wedding dress. “I saw a picture of Eleanor at her wedding the other day and thought it was a picture of me at mine,” Alice later recalled. “We looked so much alike.” (Franklin D. Roosevelt Presidential Library)
Eleanor at Campobello in 1920 with (from left) Elliott, John, Franklin Jr., Chief the dog, and Anna. “For ten years,” she said, “I was always just getting over having a baby or about to have one.” (Franklin D. Roosevelt Presidential Library)
Alice and Taft in Yokohama during their 1905 Asian tour. Their Japanese hosts were awed by Alice’s glamour—and Taft’s girth. Alice collected the headlines—and some exquisite souvenir loot—while Taft’s quiet diplomacy laid the groundwork for President Roosevelt’s Nobel Prize. (Library of Congress)
Alice was determined not to let her father steal the spotlight at her 1906 wedding, as the president did when he gave away his niece, Eleanor, the year before. When it came time to cut the cake, Alice grabbed the sword from a White House military aide and, like a Samurai, started slicing away. (Library of Congress)
After Alice had christened the Meteor, Germany’s Prince Henry gave her an expensive token of his country’s appreciation: a gold bracelet embossed with Kaiser Wilhelm’s portrait—made from diamonds. (Library of Congress)
Alice and Eleanor were both bridesmaids when Franklin’s half niece, Helen Roosevelt, married Aunt Corinne’s son, Teddy Robinson, in 1904. Alice is standing next to the bride; Eleanor is the third woman from the groom. She and Franklin, who is behind her on the left, were themselves secretly engaged at the time. (Franklin D. Roosevelt Presidential Library)
One of the few photos of Eleanor (seated) and Alice together. It was taken in 1898 at Aunt Corinne’s estate in Orange, New Jersey. (Franklin D. Roosevelt Presidential Library)
TR and FDR (flanking Teddy’s lawyer) at the 1915 Barnes libel trial in Syracuse, New York. In defending the former president on the stand, Franklin identified himself as Uncle Ted’s “fifth cousin by blood, nephew by law.” (Franklin D. Roosevelt Presidential Library)
There aren’t many families that produced two women worthy of the cover of Time magazine. Alice made it in 1927; Eleanor in 1933 (and again in 1939 and 1952). (TIME Covers © 1927 and 1933 Time Inc.

Using an ordinary Buick touring car as the base, Eleanor designed the “singing teapot” to help take the steam out of her cousin Ted Roosevelt Jr.’s 1924 campaign for governor of New York. She later regretted masterminding the “rough stunt” that effectively ended Ted Jr.’s political career. (The Queens Borough Public Library, Archives, New York Herald-Tribune Photograph Morgue Collection)
Ted Jr. (left), Alice, and Will Rogers, one of the many celebrated writers and commentators who were befriended by the extended Roosevelt clan (1922). (Library of Congress)
Thanks to her parents’ fame, Paulina was in the spotlight from the day she was born in 1925, though she was frequently overshadowed by them. On February 12, 1927, Capitol Hill photographers came to the Longworth house in large part because it was Alice’s forty-third birthday. (Paulina’s birthday was two days later—Valentine’s Day.) (Library of Congress)
Thumbing her nose yet again a
t the expectations of “respectable society,” Alice hawked Lucky Strike cigarettes to her fellow Americans in 1937.
Eleanor never cared that people gossiped about her friendship with Lorena Hickok (wearing the long scarf). The First Lady arranged a government job for the former journalist, often vacationed with her, and took her along on official trips, such as this fact-finding mission to Puerto Rico in 1934. (Franklin D. Roosevelt Presidential Library)
Sara, Eleanor, and FDR arriving to cast their votes at the Hyde Park Town Hall in November 1940. Eleanor spent decades steeling herself to overcome the domineering influence of her mother-in-law, who died less than a year after the 1940 election. “I couldn’t feel any emotion or real grief or sense of loss,” Eleanor said about Sara’s death, “and that seems terrible after thirty-six years of fairly close association.” (CSU Archives/Everett Collection)
Eleanor attending a hearing before the United Nations Special Committee on Palestine, July 1, 1947. While her male colleagues initially scoffed when President Truman appointed her as a UN delegate, Eleanor’s diplomatic triumphs earned her the nickname “First Lady of the World.” (UN Photo/KB)
When Eleanor was laid to rest on November 10, 1962, Presidents Kennedy, Truman, and Eisenhower traveled to Hyde Park, making this the first time that three presidents attended the funeral of an American woman. Just over a year later, Vice President Johnson, standing behind and to the right of JFK, would move into the White House as well. (CSU Archives/Everett Collection)
Alice was a close friend and confidante of Nixon’s throughout his career in Washington. Despite the building Watergate scandal, he still dropped by her Massachusetts Avenue town house in 1973 to wish her a happy eighty-ninth birthday. (Richard Nixon Presidential Library and Museum)
