Anna Eleanor Roosevelt (October 11, 1884 – November 7, 1962) was an American political leader who used her stature as First Lady of the United States from 1933 to 1945 to promote her husband's (Franklin D. Roosevelt's) New Deal, as well as Civil Rights. After his death she built a career as an author-speaker, a New Deal Coalition advocate and spokesperson for human rights. She was a First-wave feminist (though she opposed the Equal Rights Amendment) and was an activist role model as First Lady. Eleanor was a leader in forming the United Nations, the United Nations Association and Freedom House. She chaired the committee that drafted and approved the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. President Harry S. Truman called her the First Lady of the World in honor of her extensive human rights promotions.

She was Franklin Roosevelt's wife, a great humanitarian. Very homely to look at, but a beautiful person inside.

She married her sixth cousin (FDR). Theodore Roosevelt was her uncle (her father's brother) so her maiden and married name was Roosevelt.
