Ruthmary and her Mamie portrayal were featured as a cover story for the
Ruthmary McIllhenny Presents ...
Mamie Eisenhower! "Ruthmary
McIlhenny portrays Mamie Eisenhower as a symbol of her time and an ideal of womanhood that relates well to those over
fifty, but Mamie’s story, and humor is enjoyed by all ages.
“Mamie Remembers
Gettysburg” is a recollection of her first meeting with Ike, the trials and tribulations of marriage, war, politics,
the presidency and their life together in Gettysburg. During their 52 years of marriage Mamie Doud Eisenhower was the primary person
who provided the support for the success of Dwight D. Eisenhower. Mamie was so popular as a First Lady, she received over six
thousand letters a week. After seeing this portrayal, you’ll become one of those fans."
