FIRST LADY TO GEORGE WASHINGTON // #1

  • Wealthy widow

  • Unusually powerful, as her first husband, father-in-law, and brother-in-law were all dead

  • Her great-granddaughter married Robert E. Lee

Heather Rogers, presidential doodler

I’ve read at least one book about every U.S. president, never tire of shoehorning presidential trivia into conversations, and am basically an expert at hiding mistakes in my sketchbooks.
