The Loves of Theodore Roosevelt: The Women Who Created a President
Thu, May 1, 2025
Dinner Program

Theodore Roosevelt wrote in his senior thesis for Harvard in 1880 that women ought to be paid equal to men and have the option of keeping their maiden names upon marriage. It’s little surprise Roosevelt would be a feminist, given the women he grew up with. From his witty and decisive mother Mittie to his sunny college sweetheart and first wife Alice; from his older sister Bamie who would eventually become his key political strategist and advisor to his younger sister Conie, his eventual press secretary before the role existed; to ultimately Edith—his childhood playmate and second wife, Ed O’Keefe’s “graceful and powerful book” (Candice Millard) filled with “meticulous research [and] perceptive insights” (The New York Times), The Loves of Theodore Roosevelt: The Women Who Created a President celebrates these five extraordinary yet unsung women who opened the door to the American Century and pushed Theodore Roosevelt through it.

Edward F. O’Keefe is the CEO of the Theodore Roosevelt Presidential Library Foundation. He previously spent two decades in broadcast and digital media at ABC News, CNN, and NowThis, during which time he received a Primetime Emmy Award for his work with Anthony Bourdain, two Webby Awards, the Edward R. Murrow Award, and a George Foster Peabody Award for ABC’s coverage of 9/11.

A former fellow at the Harvard Kennedy School, he graduated with honors from Georgetown University.

Mr. O'Keefe's Athenaeum presentation is co-sponsored by the Gould Center for Humanistic Studies at Claremont McKenna College.
