White Houses

It's 1933, and Eleanor Roosevelt and her husband Franklin have taken up residence in the White House. With them is Lorena Hickok—Hick to friends—a straight-talking reporter from South Dakota.

Through the eyes of the indomitable Hick, White Houses tells the story of the secret love that blossomed between Hick and the First lady. Haunted by past difficulties and state secrets, hiding in plain sight in the glare of public life, theirs is a remarkable story of love thriving in the most unlikely circumstances.
