Gleaves Whitney, director of the Hauenstein Center for Presidential Studies, will be on WOOD TV’s “To The Point” political talk show Sunday, April 26, at 10 a.m.
Whitney will be discussing Robert N. Rosen’s visit to Grand Rapids on May 7 at the Gerald R. Ford Museum Auditorium. Rosen, author of Saving the Jews: Franklin D. Roosevelt and the Holocaust, argues that FDR was one of the few men of his time who understood and sought to defeat the threat posed by Hitler.
Rosen is a shareholder in the Rosen Law Firm in Charleston, South Carolina. He is the author of the books: A Short History of Charleston, Confederate Charleston: An Illustration History of the City and the People During the Civil War, The Jewish Confederates and Charleston: A Crossroads of History.
He received his bachelor’s degree in history from the University of Virginia, his master’s degree in history from Harvard and his juris doctorate from the University of South Carolina School of Law.
Rosen’s visit is sponsored by the Hauenstein Center for Presidential
Studies, Kaufman Interfaith Institute, the Ford Foundation and the
Gerald R. Ford Presidential Library and Museum.
