A memoir dramatizing the relationship between a teenage girl and her father from June 1963 through 1965. Loosely based on a true story, Thank You, Mr. President is a glimpse into the heart of a girl fraught with anxiety and expectations about life and love and where she might find both. The author states: "Dad was the most improbable hero, which is why he refused to write his own story. He knew it would never be believed. How could a U.S. Presidential Candidate also have been a runaway, a circus performer, a Merchant Marine, a general contractor, an engineer, and nearly everything in between. "Thank You, Mr. President was written to fulfill one of Dad's expectations of me, but I never realized the story would be as much about me as about him. I learned that I could not tell Dad's story without also telling an important part of my own."
