Who's Sleeping with the President?

Join the Newtown Square Historical Society on Wednesday, March 19th, beginning at 7:30 p.m. [please note New Starting Time!] at the Dunwoody Village Auditorium for our next program and find out!

"First Ladies of the United States," presented by Barbara Falini.
While the men who ran for president sought the post, many of their wives were required to smile, wave, and go along for the ride. These wives were often thrust into high profile positions and then expected to embrace causes, be the dutiful political spouse, and perform flawlessly on the world stage. Some wives were actually more ambitious than their husband and are the reason why the husband rose so high in the first place. One wife was the acting president for two years when her husband suffered a disabling stroke.

Please join us in welcoming Barbara Falini as she explores these topics. A graduate of West Chester and Villanova universities, Falini taught economics and government in the West Chester Area School District for 42 years. Currently Barbara teaches in the Osher Lifelong Learning project, sponsored by Widener University.

This program is held in the Dunwoody Village auditorium. The public is always welcome. Admission is free and refreshments will be provided by Dunwoody. Program starts at 7:30 pm.

Location: 3500 West Chester Pike, Newtown Square, PA
