lice Roosevelt Longworth, daughter of President Theodore Roosevelt, didn’t give a whit about the ‘proper way’ a young lady was supposed to act, much less the daughter of the President of the United States. She was a rebel. In addition to partying late into the right, speeding in her car around Washington D. C., sometimes with young men, she place bets with bookies and had green pet snake named Emily Spinach which she took to parties on her arm. She described the Christian religion as “sheer voodoo’ and declared herself to be a pagan. When the Roosevelts left the White House, she buried a voodoo doll in the form of the incoming First Lady, Helen Taft, for which she banned from the White House. When her father caught her smoking, he told her there would be “no smoking under my roof.” She took him at his word and started smoking on the roof of the White House. She married well but had affairs, one of which resulted in a child whose father was a Senator. Her most famous statement was embroidered on her pillow, “If you can’t say something good about someone, sit right here by me.”
