William Howard and Helen Taft: 7. In October , she became the first First Lady to address the U.
General Assembly, speaking on international drug interdiction and trafficking laws. Perhaps Nancy Reagan's largest and most important work as First Lady, however, was her role as the President's personal protector. Part of this role grew out of the March 30, assassination attempt on his life.
Forever afterwards, Nancy Reagan made it her concern to know his schedule: in what public venues would he be speaking, before what groups, at what time, as well as with whom he would be privately meeting. In time, her concern to protect her husband's personal well-being led her to consult an astrologer to attempt to discern precisely what days and at what times would be optimum for safety and success, and which slots were to be avoided because of potential dangers as reflected in the astrological readings.
Both Reagans admitted that the President had a tendency to trust all those who worked for him, while the First Lady tended to perceive those who, in her words, might "end run him," essentially using their positions to further their personal careers or agendas rather than that of the President and the Administration.
The President's long-time aide Michael Deaver also served as a trusted and important advisor to Nancy Reagan and he often approached her when he felt a problem might be developing. Nancy Reagan effectively supported decisions to replace various personnel, including the likes of National Security Council member William P.
Clark, and the hiring of others such as Secretary of State George Schultz. After Nancy Reagan witnessed the bold control exercised by Chief of Staff Donald Regan following President Reagan's cancer surgery, and then the fall-out he generated in mishandling the Administration's reaction to the Iran-Contra scandal, she felt that the President would be better served with a replacement.
However, she was one among many who felt this way, including those working in the Administration and national media, from Vice President George H. Bush to Washington Post publisher Katherine Graham. Many of these figures would not bring their concern directly to the President, but rather to his wife. Although Nancy Reagan rarely ventured into specific policy, it was she who defied the conventional wisdom in the Reagan Administration State Department to promote the idea of the President forming first a personal relationship with the new Soviet President Mikhail Gorbachev when he assumed power in She did so she recalled, simply because it made no sense to her that the two leaders were not at least in open dialogue with one another.
The resulting friendship and then political negotiations resulted in the INF Treaty, which called for a mutual destruction of intermediate range nuclear missiles. The treaty proved to be a crowning moment for the Administration and was later considered by many to be an important step in the end of Soviet communism and the shift to democracy of several Soviet satellite nations. Nancy Reagan's devotion to seeing this through, as well as other aspects of her husband's legacy were made all the more dramatic in light of the fact that she underwent breast cancer surgery and shortly thereafter endured the death of her mother, all just prior to the treaty signing.
Post-Presidential Life: After publishing her memoirs entitled My Turn , in , she established the Nancy Reagan Foundation, to support educational drug prevention after-school programs; it merged with the Best Foundation for a Drug-Free Tomorrow, out of which emerged the Nancy Reagan Afterschool Program, a drug prevention and life-skills program for youth.
She made eleven films in all, including three after her marriage and many television appearances up to her retirement in She and her husband, actor Ronald Reagan, appeared together in her last film, Hellcats of the Navy , The other Nancy Davis was associated with Communist front groups and was in danger of being blacklisted in the s. It was her first and only marriage and Reagan's second marriage. He had previously been married to actress Jane Wyman and they had two children, Maureen and Michael.
Ronald Reagan ran successfully for Governor of California in and Mrs. Reagan became the First Lady of California when he was sworn-in in January Nancy Reagan began some of her more public charitable work at this time starting with regular visits to wounded Vietnam War veterans, hospitals and homes for the elderly, and schools for physically and emotionally handicapped children.
She became active in projects concerning prisoners of war POWs and servicemen missing in action. She wrote a syndicated column, often commenting on this issue and donating her salary to the National League of Families of American Prisoners and Missing in Action in Southeast Asia. During one of her visits to the elderly in , Mrs. Reagan observed participants in the Foster Grandparent Program.
This program brings together senior citizens and handicapped children, and she soon became its champion. Reagan continued to help expand the program on a national level and promote private funding in local communities. Reagan entitled, "To Love a Child. To spotlight the problem, she traveled nearly , miles throughout the United States and several countries in conjunction with her campaign to fight substance abuse.
