Description - Lady In Red by Sheila Tate

From Nancy Reagan's close friend, confidante, and press secretary Sheila Tate, the book is a loving remembrance of the former First Lady, collecting correspondence, personal photographs, and stories from politicians, friends, and news makers who knew her best.

Lady in Red is the ultimate collection of stories and images related to First Lady Nancy Reagan, lovingly compiled by her close friend and former press secretary. Confidante of Mrs. Reagan's for over 30 years, Sheila Tate gives readers a rare glimpse into the personal life of the president's wife. Tate shares her photographs of the First Family, entrusted to her by Mrs. Reagan because they were her favorite images, and includes correspondence and notes between the two friends.
Lady in Red focuses on the various roles that Mrs. Reagan inhabited during her years in the White House--Wife, Protector, Fixer, Host, Diplomat, and Advisor, among others. Tate develops a nuanced portrait of this graceful yet strong woman who felt it was her mission to restore a sense of grandeur, mystique, and drama to the presidency.
In each role, Mrs. Reagan brought a sense of pride and purpose to the White House--and the nation. Tate interviews the friends and politicians who knew her best as they share their favorite stories of the First Lady. Key players such as President George H. W. Bush, Chris Wallace, James Baker, Ed Meese, Maureen Dowd, and Marlin Fitzwater share their most cherished memories of Mrs. Reagan, adding depth and variety to this tribute.
