Description: The American people have never elected a woman president, but from 1919 to 1921, they had an acting woman president and didn't even know it. When President Woodrow Wilson suffered a devastating stroke in 1919, his wife, First Lady Edith Wilson, found herself in extraordinary circumstances. She made the fateful decision to hide his condition and perform several presidential duties herself. In this episode, we interview Rebecca Boggs Roberts about the first woman to exercise the powers of the presidency.
