Meeting RoomLeslie Goddard portrays Abigail Adams, a true partner to her husband, John Adams, and a committed patriot.
More than just a wife (of the second President John Adams) and mother (of the sixth president John Quincy Adams), Abigail Adams was a true partner to her husband and a committed patriot. Feisty and outspoken, she immersed herself in the politics of her day even while she ran the family's farm. In this living history portrayal by award-winning actress and scholar Leslie Goddard, Adams recounts her life, including her famous call to John to "Remember the Ladies" in the founding of the new nation. She shares her opinions of the founding fathers, displays her lively wit, and offers a glimpse at one of the great love stories of all time.
