About this episode

"In Plain Sight: Lady Bird Johnson" uncovers Lady Bird’s surprisingly powerful role in the Johnson presidency and provides history-making revelations about Lyndon B. Johnson's time in office. Told in the former first lady's own words from over 123 hours of her audio diaries -- most of it never-before-heard -- "In Plain Sight" reveals how one vastly underestimated woman navigated the politics and polarization of her era.
