American Experience TR The Story of Theodore Roosevelt

He personified America at the turn of the last century, confident, exuberant, but suffered from hidden demons. He was Teddy Roosevelt, heroic figure of boundless energy and bleak emotions. Acclaimed filmmaker David Grubin uses letters, diaries, authentic film footage and interviews to create a fascinating profile of this ambitious man: fearless in combat, loving and generous with family, and unafraid to take on powerful financial interests.
