Alice Roosevelt: 365 Party Girl

You Rammies asked, and we delivered: the White House wild child herself — Alice Roosevelt. Known for smoking in public, wearing pants, and speeding through D.C. in cars full of boys, Alice lived fast, loud, and unapologetically. Born into great wealth and even greater tragedy, her life was never conventional. At just 17, she swept into the White House and captured the nation’s imagination, becoming America’s first It Girl, and arguably the first influencer. A sharp political mind, a world-class gossip, and a woman who bent every rule to her will, Alice’s spirit is as enviable now as it was over a century ago.
