Fearless leaders have walked the halls of White House for centuries. In this episode, White House Historical Association President Stewart McLaurin talks to Jean Case, CEO of the Case Foundation and a member of the Association's Board, about what it takes to exhibit fearless leadership, and how Presidents and First Ladies have inspired the nation throughout our history. Mrs. Case notes that our mission is an invitation for everyone to experience the rich history of the White House: “The fact that this is a public-private partnership makes it exceedingly unique, but also assures that this...is the People’s House.” Your donations and purchases of our products, including the Official White House Christmas Ornament, are instrumental in sustaining our mission to preserve the history of the nation’s most important residence.
