Mamie Eisenhower, First Lady

Mamie Eisenhower photographed in the 1950s. Mamie Geneva Doud Eisenhower (November 14, 1896 - November 1, 1979) was the wife of President Dwight D. Eisenhower, and First Lady of the United States from 1953 to 1961. She married Dwight Eisenhower in 1916. The young couple moved frequently between military quarters in many postings, from Panama to the Philippines. As First Lady, she entertained a wide range of foreign dignitaries, who reacted well to her confident style and splendid costumes. On leaving the White House, she made clear her disapproval of the incoming Kennedy's. She spent her retirement and widowhood at the family farm at Gettysburg, Pennsylvania. She suffered a stroke in September, 1979 and died quietly in her sleep very early the morning of November 1, less than two weeks shy of her 83rd birthday.
