Hour 1:

Betty Boyd Caroli

Author Betty Boyd Caroli discusses her latest book, Lady Bird and Lyndon: The Hidden Story of a Marriage that Made a President .

"A fresh look at Lady Bird Johnson that upends her image as a plain Jane who was married for her money and mistreated by Lyndon. This Lady Bird worked quietly behind the scenes through every campaign, every illness, and a trying presidency as a key strategist, fundraiser, barnstormer, peacemaker, and indispensable therapist. In Lady Bird and Lyndon, Betty Boyd Caroli restores Lady Bird to her rightful place in history, painting a vivid portrait of a marriage with complex, but familiar and identifiable overtones."-Amazon
