How I Became Famous
I became famous because I was known as the "first lady". I was known as the first lady because i helped lots of people during world war 2 . My husband was the 32nd president Franklin Roosevelt and thank goodness he was president because he helped me become the first lady because if I thought some thing and he agreed it became a law or not a law or a order or maybe just to help out. The greatest impact I had was giving, helping, and visiting the poor, homeless, miners and ill people.
