Mary Geneva " Mamie " Eisenhower ( née Doud; November 14, 1896 – November 1, 1979) was the first lady of the United States from 1953 to 1961 as the wife of President Dwight D. Eisenhower. Born in Boone, Iowa, she was raised in a wealthy household in Colorado. She married Eisenhower, then a lieutenant in the United States Army, in 1916.
The President called Mamie “my invaluable, my indispensable, but publicly inarticulate lifelong partner.”. Those words are revealing, as they suggest that conversations in the family rooms of the White House went beyond news about the grandchildren or plans for vacation.
