jimmy carter before president carter. florida deems who was an assistant cook. elizabeth moore and catherine smith. in her diary there's a lot of praise for ida allen.she was temperamental she was one that could work magic and make everything happen if it needed to happen. you get an idea of the interplay in the white house staff. the interesting thing that happens when the roosevelts come to the white house is they actually, in a way, they ended segregated practice. back in the time as president taft, he hired women segregationist called mrs. jeffrey. even though there was a multiracial white house cooking staff, she created a segregated eating spaces. before all the service a together, but she had a separate table for whites and separate tables for blacks. by the time eleanor roosevelt gets to the white house, she rectifies the situation by firing most of the white people. i will let you decide that is progress or not, but it's no longer segregation, because there's only one race working in the kitchen. but overall we see that overall we have these cooks that are culinary artists and many times family confidence. presidents go to their funerals, t
