Orphaned at the age of 10, mother of 6, betrayed by her husband FDR’s affair with her secretary, Eleanor went on to become one of the most active first ladies in history. During FDR’s first year as president, she traveled 40,000 miles, being his eyes, ears, and legs. She finished her career as the first female U.S. delegate to the United Nations and played a major part in drafting and gaining passage for the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.
Allen Stone, a retired broadcast journalist who witnessed and reported on many key events of the 1960s and 1970s, received the prestigious duPont-Columbia award for work (with others) on the 40th anniversary of the JFK assassination. For Renesan, he has made several presentations connecting past and current events.
Coffee and pastries from La Rana Coffee and classic movie theater concessions from Sky Midtown will be available in the lobby.
