FDR's Most Powerful Weapon In The White House

FDR Library

For 12 years, Franklin and Eleanor were the power couple in the White House.  At least to the public. 

Within the White House, Marguerite "Missy" LeHand was the right hand of President Franklin D. Roosevelt, functioning as a de facto chief of staff and more.
