Doris Kearns Goodwin: Presidential Stories, the TRPL, and the Enduring Lessons of Theodore Roosevelt

In a special live taping at The Explorers Club in New York City, presidential historian and Pulitzer Prize-winner Doris Kearns Goodwin joins Ted for a warm, wide-ranging conversation about his great-great-grandfather. Goodwin shares lively anecdotes about TR and other White House occupants, reveals details of her new book on the Gilded Age, and marvels at the upcoming Theodore Roosevelt Presidential Library: “I don't think I've ever seen anything like it.”  Ted reflects on discovering his connection to Theodore Roosevelt as a child, and together they make the case that TR's legacy of service, empathy, and character is exactly what America needs right now.
