Q:

Which first lady was called Steel Magnolia?

A:

Rosalynn Carter. Was she a delicate flower or tough as nails? Some reporters saw Carter’s Southern charm as a thin veil for her strong will and determination. As first lady, she was very active in the day-to-day affairs of her husband’s administration—even sometimes attending cabinet meetings and serving on the President’s Commission on Mental Health. She also represented the Carter administration on an official trip to Latin America. That led to questions about the role of a first lady and whether she had exceeded the limits of her position.
