À propos de cet audio

In this third volume of her memoirs, Eleanor Roosevelt, perhaps the best-loved woman of her time, shares the experiences—private and public—of her life in the 13 years since the death of her husband, President Franklin Delano Roosevelt. She describes in intimate detail the problems she had to solve after her husband’s death, winding up his affairs, and working out a pattern for her new life.

In 1945, President Truman asked her to be a delegate to the first United Nations. When most people her age considered quiet retirements, Roosevelt became known as the First Lady to the World. She was an indefatigable champion of human rights and diplomacy as she continuously traveled and conducted diplomatic work around Europe, Asia, and Russia. She was in-demand as a lecturer. She continued making speeches and writing her popular "My Day" newspaper columns even while performing her official duties. She writes with humor, clarity, and unwavering passion for democracy. She was the first chairperson of the Commission on Human Rights, which advocated for the civil liberties of all people, particularly the poor, minorities, and disadvantaged. She helped push the Universal Declaration of Human Rights through passage in the United Nations General Assembly in 1948. For her forthright humanitarian endeavors, Eleanor Roosevelt was voted as ninth in Gallup’s 1999 list of the Most Widely Admired People of the 20th Century. On June 5, 2023, the United States Mint issued a quarter honoring Eleanor Roosevelt and her work on the landmark Universal Declaration of Human Rights.
