Edith Wilson: the Seat of Untold Power with Rebecca Boggs Roberts

Sharon McMahon

Feb 27, 2023

Historian Rebecca Boggs Roberts joins Sharon on Here’s Where It Gets Interesting to talk about her upcoming book, Untold Power. Long time listeners are no strangers to the lives of First Ladies, and today we talk about Edith Wilson, who was so much more than just her husband’s wife. When she met Woodrow Wilson, she was an independent, fashionable small business owner, and she had no plans to stand in the shadows.

Thank you to our guest, Rebecca Boggs Roberts.
