what i found so surprising about fdr is how lonely he felt in the white house. it s hard to believe he s fighting depression, fighting a world war, but he had no home life. he had no real emotional relationship with his wife, eleanor, who was out of d.c. most of the time crusading for her causes. so he says to daisy one time, i m either exhibit a or left entirely alone. daisy was the antidote to that loneliness. she came him the comfort he needed. she could read his emotions better than anyone else and was his favorite person to relax with. one day in 1944 he had 22 separate meetings. afterward i would have wanted to crawl in a hole. what did he want to do? he wanted to have dinner alone with daisy suckley. she could intuit his mind in a way nobody else could. she could relax him in a way
and daisy sukly. roosevelt, the most important president of the 20th century by far is this enigma because he was a very outwardly directed person. very rarely not introspective. you rarely got a sense of who he was and of course he died before he wrote any memoirs. so his letters to daisy, which were discovered only recently, are the window into him. what did you learn about that relationship? well, first of all, as you know from reading a lot of biographies of fdr, he loved to be around women and he had powerful women surrounding him his own life. missy lehan, frances perkins. the reason i put daisy suckley in there, she earned the distinction of first friend not by advising on a critical policy decision or speaking hard truths to him like so many other friends in my book did, but just by being his constant and loyal companion.
