Princess Alice: First Daughter, First Influencer | 60 Minutes: A Second Look

  • Summary

  • In the early 20th Century, there was no bigger celebrity than first daughter, Alice Roosevelt, daughter of President Theodore Roosevelt. She captured the attention of the nation with care-free, hard-partying ways and eccentricities, like her habit of carrying around a pet snake. Songs were written about her and a color was even named in her honor. On top of that, she married a future Speaker of the House and had an enduring affair with another influential member of Congress. It was a big deal when 60 Minutes landed an interview with Alice in her later years -- and she didn't hold back when dishing about some other famous individuals, including her famous cousins Eleanor and Franklin.
