Historian Lindsay Chervinsky Commemorates Betty Ford’s 107th Birthday

Abigail Adams expert to compare two transformative First Ladies

On April 8, 2025, Dr. Lindsay Chervinsky is coming to the Ford Presidential Museum to help us celebrate Betty Ford with a fascinating discussion on how Betty’s legacy shares much in common with that of Abigail Adams, wife of President John Adams.

Adams and Ford served as important political advisors to their husbands, expressed their opinions freely, and unabashedly occupied the political space of their age. Learn about their unique tenures in the White House and how they shaped the role for their successors.
