Susan Pola Staples asked Susan Wittig Albert:

I've always found Mrs Roosevelt to be a fascinating person. She was more socially aware than Franklin and more liberal than him as well. I am looking forward to reading your book. I know very little about Ms Hickok and will want to read the Blanche Cook book. What do you believe were the motivating forces behind both remarkable women?

Susan Wittig Albert Susan, huge question. Their motives and passions varied over the years, as they grew and changed. Each was compelled to push her understanding and reach in the world as far as she could; each was constrained--and boosted--by different factors. It's a fascinating partnership on which each depended, in different ways, to the end of her life. Do read as much as you can, and keep asking yourself that question. Your answers will change as you continue...
