March is National Women’s History Month and award-winning actress and scholar Leslie Goddard will portray Eleanor Roosevelt, one of the most fascinating and influential public figures of the twentieth century. Born into the wealth during America’s Gilded Age, Eleanor grew from shy, homely orphan into a confident, driven woman who championed progressive causes and the rights of man. Drawn from Eleanor’s own letters, diaries, newspaper columns, and other writings, this thoroughly researched and engaging performance captures the warm, honest, and passionate American first lady and stateswoman.
