HTML:<b><i>NEW YORK TIMES</i> BESTSELLER • “A revelation . . . a book in the Caro mold, using Lady Bird, along with tapes and transcripts of her entire White House diary, to tell the history of America during the Johnson years.”—<i>The New York Times</i><br /></b><br /> <b>The inspiration for the documentary film <i>The Lady Bird Diaries,</i> premiering November 13 on Hulu</b><br /> Perhaps the most underestimated First Lady of the twentieth century, Lady Bird Johnson was also one of the most powerful. In <i>Lady Bird Johnson: Hiding in Plain Sight,</i> Julia Sweig reveals how indispensable the First Lady was to Lyndon Johnson’s administration—which Lady Bird called “our” presidency. In addition to advising him through critical moments, she took on her own policy initiatives, including the most ambitious national environmental effort since Theodore Roosevelt and a virtually unknown initiative to desegregate access to public recreation and national parks in Washington, D.C.<br />  <br /> Where no presidential biographer has understood Lady Bird’s full impact, Julia Sweig is the first to draw substantially on her White House diaries and to place her center stage. In doing so, Sweig reveals a woman ahead of her time—and an accomplished strategist and politician in her own right.<br /> <i>This program includes an actual recording of Lady Bird’s audio diary, dated October 12, 1965.</i><br />  <br /> <b>Winner of the Texas Book Award • Longlisted for the PEN/Jacqueline Bogard Weld Award</b>.
