Roosevelt's Gridiron Widows party reshapes press exclusives
In 1933, First Lady Eleanor Roosevelt began the Gridiron Widows party inviting women reporters and political wives to a humorous, afterhours event.

Additional social events for women in the press include Evalyn Walsh McLean's annual dinner, Eleanor Patterson's country estate party, and a stately tea hosted by Lord Halifax and his wife.
