Framed Print of Edith Wilson, First Lady
Edith White Bolling Galt Wilson (October 15, 1872 - December 28, 1961), second wife of President Wilson, was First Lady of the United States from 1915 to 1921. She has been labeled "the Secret President" and "the first woman to run the government" for the role she played after her husband suffered a severe stroke in 1919. She has also been called "the first female president of the United States." In March 1915, the widow Galt was introduced to President Woodrow Wilson. He took an instant liking to Mrs. Galt, who was charming, intelligent, and plumply pretty. In proposing to her, he made the poignant statement that "In this place, time is not measured by weeks, or months, or years, but by deep human experiences..." As First Lady during World War I, she observed gasless Sundays, meatless Mondays, and wheatless Wednesdays to set an example for the federal rationing effort. She let sheep to graze on the White House lawn rather than waste manpower in mowing it and auctioned off their wool for the benefit of the American Red Cross. In 1921, she retired with the former president to their home in Washington, D.C. nursing him until his death three years later. She died of congestive heart failure at the age of 89, on December 28, 1961, on what would have been Woodrow Wilson's 105th birthday. © New York Public Library / Science Source
